The Side Gallery (and its wonderful archive) has had a difficult few years, following the loss of funding from the Arts Council in 2023. But now Side is back, boasting a new business model but the same commitment to documentary photography. As an (adopted) local it's lovely to have Side back, in whatever form, and by way of celebration I've contributed a picture of an unfeasibly large hedge to the forthcoming show. Trust me, I have my reasons....
