Women, Weights and Empowerment
I was commissioned by Rina Sagoo at the Museum of London to create a photographic record of women weight training in London as part of Curating London's Collecting Sport programme. In collaboration with Danni Tabor, Naomi Bines and Sheriya Clement-Pascall, all of whom are coaches at Lift Studio LDN, we made 10 photographs which have now been acquired into the Museum of London's permanent collection. The project explores what the growth in weight training among women means in terms of personal narrative, relationships to the body, hopes for the next generation and for the culture around weight lifting.
The photographs acquired were printed by Joas Souza at Image Print Centre
