Travel photographer and writer, Debbie Smyth, is sharing some of her recent work in the Upper Gallery at Lauderdale House, 20 Aug – 1 Sep 2025.
Debbie’s work captures her view of the culture, language and history of the places and people she visits, with a particular focus on urban settings. That said, her love for horses always makes an appearance too.
This exhibition will explore tiny moments of silence and space in Tokyo (in both photos and haiku); history and architecture of a street in former East Berlin; Abandoned Soviet sanatoria in Georgia; Corbusier architecture in the snow; horses in Cappadocia and Kyrgyzstan; and some striking urban shots of London.
