UK Photographer Polly Tootal has some Giclée prints from her recent London Burning series up for sale and will be donating a percentage of each sale to the Single Homeless Project and to the environmental organization 350.org.
«On July 19th 2022 temperatures in London reached forty degrees for the first time since records began. On this infamous day of extreme heat in the UK, the tinder grass was already parched following a summer of no rain. A fire broke out in a Dagenham park and it continued to burn for 12 hours, ripping through a residential area and exploding a car park full of vehicles. The extreme heat that day was the catalyst for another 10 fires that broke out across the Greater London area.»
«Polly brings a sense of mystery and wonder into all areas of her work. Her graphic compositions emphasise the almighty industrialisation of our world, while her quiet portraits remind us of our delicate and vulnerable humanity.»—Gem Fletcher.
