Last day in London
Meeting Kristie & Atlantic Swiss
Met up with Kristie who has been living in London for the last year during her lunch break in Holborn. After lunch and lots of catching up she offered to show me through her office. Sure, I thought, why not? Little did I know she works in the most awesome office space I've seen, Atlantic Swiss at High Holborn House, decked out by the director James Gallimore. Seriously cool.

The Photographer's Gallery - Gregory Crewdson's Cathedral of The Pines Exhibition
It was great to finally see some of Crewdson's work in the flesh. "Cathedral of the Pines (2013–14) was made during three productions in and around the rural town of Becket, Massachusetts. In images that recall nineteenth-century American and European paintings, Crewdson photographed figures in the surrounding forests, including the actual trail from which the series takes its title. Interior scenes charged with ambiguous narratives probe tensions between art, life, connection and separation, intimacy and isolation.
