The What Not To Share campaign celebrates a year of raising awareness in young people to the dangers of transmitting hepatitis C with a major exhibition of Charlotte MacMillan's portraits. 35 portraits taken over the past year will be exhibited featuring key celebrity supporters including: Sadie Frost, Pete Doherty & Babyshambles, Dirty Pretty Things, Kano, Roots Manuva, Johnny Marr, Lily Allen, Rufus Wainwright, Kevin Roland, Jack Davenport, James Lavelle and Alan McGee. 071113.lily_allen2.jpg

Hepatitis C is a highly destructive disease. It can be transmitted by piercing, tattoos, transfusion, injection, sharing toothbrushes or razors, dental work and, sharing notes to snort drugs. It attacks the liver and can lead to cirrhosis, liver cancer and liver failure. It is responsible for 50-75% of liver cancers and it is currently a bigger killer in the West than HIV. new art on the bar wall DAN SIMON 071113.theden.jpg

The subject of continued controversy, the London rickshaw trade has changed the face of late night Soho. But behind the media stories and the court cases, the international community of workers - a broad mix of people from students to inveterate wanderers - have rarely been exposed. Seen through the eyes of a former rider, The London Rickshaw Riders brings into focus an extraordinary sub-culture where the streets of the West End play out to a nightly hunt for reward and accommodation is won by the physical acquisition of abandoned properties.

My paintings ask questions about the nature of consciousness. They look at how concepts of consciousness can be represented, the ways different cultures have found to understand and show it, and their and our attitudes towards the consciousness of other living things.

RED NOVEMBER This is the colour of street burlesque of Sydney Australia. The persons in the photo shoot are all my good friends we all work and play together its lots of fun, we always cause chaos as passing cars pull over to get a glimpse of the action, these street shows are never advertised as they are always sporadic (spur of the moment). I always have my camera at hand so this expo came out of one nights shooting.
