TYRONE LEBON IS A PHOTOGRAPHER AND FILMMAKER BASED IN LONDON. TAKING CRACKING PHOTOS SINCE THE TENDER AGE OF 16, HE USES HIS HOMETOWN AS THE INSPIRATION AND BACKDROP FOR MOST OF HIS WORK. I WENT TO HIS BOOK LAUNCH AT CLAIRE DE ROUEN BOOKS, AND WAS MIGHTY IMPRESSED.
"FROM WHAT I'VE SEEN OF OTHER CITIES AROUND THE WORLD, A LOT OF THEM ARE GOOD IN MANY WAYS BUT NONE HAVE THE SAME MIX OF CULTURES THAT I FIND SO EXCITING HERE. I NEVER REALISED HOW SPECIAL THAT ASPECT OF THE CITY WAS UNTIL I STARTED TRAVELLING AROUND THE WORLD. THE AMAZING MIX OF CULTURES, ETHNIC GROUPS AND DIVERSE BACKGROUNDS ALL LIVING TOGETHER IS SO INTERESTING TO ME. I GUESS IN MY PICTURES I LIKE TO DOCUMENT THAT- I THINK YOUR SURROUNDINGS INFLUENCE YOU, IT INVADES WHAT YOU DO AND IT CAN'T BE HELPED, SO I'M GRATEFUL TO BE SURROUNDED BY LONDON."
