Rio Blake is showcasing never-before-seen images of the Notting Hill Carnival at a Black History Month exhibit
“I’ve been photographing the Notting Hill Carnival since 2014/2015 when I got my first camera,” the 27-year-old, who lives in north-west London, told the PA news agency. “I’ve been every year and I’ve never personally been in trouble or had any altercations of anything like that, and I love bringing my camera and taking photos of everyone there as most people are happy and in a good mood.“I hope my photography encourages people to see the [Notting Hill Carnival] differently and I’d like to think that the majority of people see it as a celebration.”
“It was to commemorate Notting Hill Carnival when it was cancelled and that was picked up and represented by M&C Saatchi the next year, and it was great to be able to shout from the rooftops about other people’s work as well.” “I love being a part of a black collective that’s showcasing our work and getting the knowledge of black power out there, I think it’s so important,” she said.“The here and now aspect really showcases exactly where black people have come from and the contemporary ideas behind it.”
