An exhibition of photographs by Martin Edwards.

Carnivals form part of popular culture across the world, from the Nottingham Carnival of London, to carnivals in Brazil, Venice and China. They have featured in many films and literary works, and create powerful images of seduction, eroticism and mystery.

The exhibition “Carnival” explores the theme of carnival through works by photographer Martin Edwards. Photographs from “Carnival” were premiered in New York in December 2009 and follow two solo exhibitions held by Martin Edwards in London, also at the Red Gate Gallery, in 2009. Martin has worked with dancers and period carnival costumes to create evocative and original photographic works that explore the concept of carnival in detail. The photographs focus on a story of seduction and flirtation between three dancers, dressed in costume for a carnival in 18th-century Venice.

Martin’s work pushes traditional still photography to its limits, in a rapidly changing world where multimedia and video are profoundly changing the world of lens-based arts. He explores form, colour and scale within his photographs, working with long exposures that create fluid, haunting representations of movement. “A man and a woman dancing in a carnival mask is an ambiguous and haunting image. Their faces are hidden but their disguises offer glimpses of seduction and eroticism at play. I have tried to capture their mystery and excitement in the project,” says photographer Martin Edwards.

See you there,

I have found a lot of useful

I have found a lot of useful information from this platform. I must say that sharing your thoughts with one another is an easy way to relax yourself in the daily hectic routines. Each time a description of the change, there are always lots of talk about it anywhere. These are not exempt. I mean one must be up to date with the day to day change in the environment and in the technology as well. In my personal opinion, the world is turning into a global village and now you can get a lot of required information by just a click while sitting where ever you are.

Hi. I've been taking the

Hi. I've been taking the Mirafit religiously since I received it but I don't know whether it's doing anything or not. The only thing I feel is gassy and constipated. Do I need to take it longer to get results? Of course, I just got off some medications that could have been causing the other things too. I will continue to take it just because it has such good reviews. I guess I'll know if it's working when I weigh in next week. Mercedes Headlight
