Candid Street Shots...... Notting Hill Carnival
Aspects of Carnival - by Fiona Hawthorne
A new thirteen panels installation created by local artist Fiona Hawthorne is the latest to transform a 100-metre stretch along Portobello Road's North Wall. `Aspects of Carnival' celebrates what is undoubtedly the area's most significant contribution to contemporary culture: the Notting Hill Carnival. It tells the full story of Carnival - from early preparations, through the procession itself, to the big clean-up in the early hours.
This installation is part of `the Portobello Road North Wall Project', a public art programme from the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea which enables contemporary artists to showcase their talent in one of London's most vibrant creative hubs and popular tourist destinations.
