In the Middle of Becoming

We are pleased to announce the publication of Jade Smith’s debut photo book, ‘In the Middle of Becoming’. Please join us on Thursday 8th October at Guest Editions to celebrate the launch and see the accompanying exhibition prints.

‘In the Middle of Becoming’ is a photographic journey through time, place, and personal transformation. This body of work began not as a planned project, but as an instinctive response to travel and connection to a place. At its core, it is about learning to see, to truly look at others, at ourselves, and at the fragility of life. The project begins in Nepal, serving as the emotional and conceptual foundation of the work, before extending into Thailand and Vietnam.

Where: Guest Editions
Hackney Downs Studios
London E8 2BT

When: Thursday 8th October, 6-9pm.

The exhibition will continue until Saturday 10th October.
