Lockdown portraits on display at seafront location

A photography exhibition of lockdown-themed portraits has opened on Brighton's seafront.

Photographer JJ Waller snapped 100 families and individuals through windows, doors and balconies during the 2020 Covid-19 pandemic.

The 30 prints measuring 900cm x 600cm are on display next to the city's i360 until 30 September.

The artist said: "It was an intense period of picture making that fated me to be out working when most people were locked down or self-isolating.”

The UK went into lockdown in March 2020 and restrictions eased from May until November's second lockdown.

A third lockdown was put into place in January 2021 which was completely lifted in August that year.

Mr Waller said: "Quite often I was a welcome interruption to the humdrum of the day."
