BRIXTON SKATE

  • Matthew Stansfield

Portraits of 'Josh & the BMT Skate Crew' in Brixton shot as a personal project. I love to capture raw: un-staged, gritty moments of people loving life. The skatepark is located close to Brixton Academy & was originally built in 1978 on the former site of the Brixton Tabernacle Baptist Church. Since becoming a skatepark it has reached legendary status & is affectionately known as Stockwell Sands or Brixton Beach. To view more of my recent work: www.mattstansfield.co.uk
