“DID YOU TAKE THIS”

“Did You Take This?” is a collaborative project between the artist Louie Stewart and young people living in Euston's Regents Park Estate. Over the course of three months, Stewart worked on a series of workshops which explored how his participants could translate their experiences of environment, culture and family bonds through photography.

“As a practitioner I wanted to think about ways photography could be used as a tool to empower communities. In speaking with Derek Wiafe about his own socially engaged projects I saw there were opportunities to use this way of working to bring funding into socially deprived communities. I worked alongside him to start the idea of reaching out to Camden Council and forming partnerships through my own voluntary work at within the community.”
