PhotoMonth returns in October 2025, relaunching with a renewed energy and expanded vision. This year, it will be exhibiting photography across all London areas with an 'E' postcode, from EC1 to SE15, from Hackney to Deptford. This year’s PhotoMonth will showcase the full breadth of photographic practice - from personal to political, street to landscape, portraiture to conceptual work.
Highlights include:
- Collaborations with major institutions, including Tate Modern, Whitechapel Gallery, South London Gallery, Autograph ABP, Flowers East, Four Corners, Hannah Barry Gallery, Gray Gallery, and others.
- The PhotoMonth Hub at Mile End Art Pavilion, hosting solo shows selected from the Open Call, an exhibition by Zed Nelson (The Anthropocene Illusion), and work from recent graduates and academic staff from across the UK.
- City-wide QR-coded interactive map, listing every show and venue for visitors to explore.
- Weekend walking tours led by photographers, curators, and the PhotoMonth team—guiding audiences through exhibition clusters in different neighbourhoods.
- Night walks in Bermondsey, Deptford, and the Docklands.
- Film screenings related to photography, including Q&As with directors and actors, hosted at Hackney Picturehouse.
- Flyposting of photographic works in key cultural areas.
- A mini-symposium on the theme of 'Longing'
