In a challenging economic climate, London’s artists are forging new models for the production and distribution of photography. In this panel, Ben Goulder, publisher and director of New Dimension; Gareth McConnell, artist and director of Sorika; and Amber Pinkerton, photographer and founder of JA Editorial Archive, discuss navigating an insecure funding landscape and a lack of access to space, in order to develop projects rooted in community solidarity and collective joy. Moderated by Lillian Wilkie.
