iylshowcase: Book release – Ian Kenneth Bird’s ‘Don’t know what I want but I want it now’Presented tonight at Doomed Gallery, Dalston from 6-9pm.London-based photographer Ian Kenneth Bird records the places, injuries and people that skate the capital, in his new series ‘Don’t know what I want but I want it now’.The book covers a very specific subculture that has only recently received a relatively consistent focus by the mainstream, but has been proliferated into music, photography, film and clothing that reaches outside of immediate scene.“It’s hard to define the effect of mainstream attention on skateboarding as it’s always been dictated by its own rules, regardless of fashions or trends.” -- source link
