Roy Mehta’s photographic ode to the London

Revival: London 1989–1993', is Roy Mehta’s photographic ode to the London Borough of Brent.  In this book, Mehta showcases the life and legacy of the people who made the borough what it is today. He has printed his undeveloped films from the past to put together this ode to multiculturalism. Brent has a rich history of multiculturalism. Roy Mehta’s exquisite black and white photographs capture the daily rituals of its various communities, most notably the Afro-Caribbean and Irish, engaged in seemingly simple activities at home, in the street and at church. Shot from 1989–1993, the images move from profound moments of faith to quiet family settings to the noisy streets outside, reminding us of the continual opportunities for connection and reflection in everyday life. The book is published by Hoxton MiniPress for £25.
