"Local or visitor, London courses through your body as if its
rainbow-coloured system of underground veins is somehow
intrinsically linked to your own." ~ Chris Holmes Often waking
before dawn, photographer Chris Holmes captures rare moments of
solitude and calm as the city of London yawns, stretches and begins
its day. His high-contrast scenes depict the miniature dramas
unfolding all around us, obscured by the hectic pace of
metropolitan life. Moving to London as an adult, Chris fell in love
with the city in tandem with his development as a photographer and
shoots his adopted home as both a romantic insider and an impartial
admirer. Hidden in Chaos pairs Chris's cinematic images with the
words of 18 poets of various backgrounds, adding more layers of
texture and meaning to the complex but devoted relationship that
London's residents and visitors have with the city's many faces.
London's gray and glow, its daily ebb and flow, are celebrated,
questioned and contemplated in this visual and poetic tribute.
Includes poems by Elena Ashton, Shez Chung Blake, Troy Cabida,
Laura Corns, Paul Cree, Caroline Druitt, George Duggan, Sam
El-Bahja, Tom Gill, Bizhan Govindji, Imogen Hudson-Clayton, Danny
Martin, Louise McStravick, Aaliyah Orridge, Astra
Papachristodoulou, Abdul Patel, Ben See, and Janay Stephenson.
