CANAL BOAT LIVES
An Exhibition By Gill Shaw
FREE ENTRY
Gill Shaw has been a Celebrity and People Photographer for over 25 years. She is in her element in all situations, at the Palace with the Royals, at a church covering a wedding, or with the local people on a remote island in Africa.
Since Covid, Gill found it difficult to switch off, and spent many hours walking along the Grand Union Canal in Hanwell, filled with spring flowers, tiny ducklings and cygnets…and the Grand Union Canal around Horsenden Farm.
So, this is where the idea for Gill's new project LOOKING THROUGH THE LENS AT CANAL BOAT LIVES came from – a project to show alternative lifestyles of the narrow boat community.
The result is a set of stunning photographs showing the characters and lifestyles of this community of people living amongst us on our canals.
Exhibitions are regularly extended to the Chapel Bar, located on Stalls level.
