Photo diary: Song Kol, Kyrgyzstan



Kyrgyzstan is one of those places that people don't know much about and, because of that, tend to think that it's a scary and mysterious part of the world. In fact, it's one of the most interesting places to be at the moment because it still has places which are not Westernised at all. Song Kol lake is one of them -  there is no electricity, no Internet or phone service, no shower or even toilets.  Basic life conditions in nomadic yurts,  cold nights, starry skies and beautiful nature - that's basically all one would find there.

THE CONCRETE JUNGLE REIMAGINED



Written by Clare Fisher

Bold Tendencies Sculpture Project 6, upper levels, Peckham Multi-storey car park

If the words ‘multi-storey car park’ make you wrinkle your nose at the thought of petrol and piss, then go down (or up, or sideways) to Peckham. Follow the red painted line past the butchers and hair extension shops, to the car park. Walk up the stairs – which do wreak, I have to admit – to… some pretty interesting sculptures.
