Greenwich, London
2nd March to 1st December 2024
Over a year in the making, I’m very pleased to announce that Royal Museums Greenwich will be displaying 42 prints and two original glass plates from the project in a major exhibition at the National Maritime Museum to coincide with the RNLI’s 200th anniversary.
The exhibition is called Women of the RNLI and will run from 2nd March to 1st December 2024 — look out for the commemorative postcard pack in the Museum shop too!
I feel the NMM has always been a natural and obvious home for my work, so it was a very special moment when the Museum got in touch to say they’d like to acquire prints of my photographs for their archive.
It really is an honour to know that my photographs are now sitting alongside some of the great artworks and artefacts from our maritime heritage, and I’m sure the extraordinary people within the photographs will feel similarly.
After all, I couldn’t have made this work without them, so it feels like the ultimate reward for all involved — to have such a bright light shone on this aspect of maritime culture, a vital slice of island life that can be taken for granted all too often until moments like this, moments when we are reminded of the greatness of humanity continually on display from the brave, selfless folk of the RNLI.
