MA Photography Exhibition – What’s On In Oxford

NEW PHOTOGRAPHY EXHIBITION “Wounded Water” to open at Oxford Brookes University, Oxford as part of the MA in Professional Photography show.

Andrew Perris is proud to announce Wounded Water, which focuses on the decline of our valuable waterways from both an environmental and human perspective. Wounded Water is a photographic journey along a chalk stream, the River Ems in Sussex. Chalk streams are a globally rare phenomenon, with only around 220 worldwide, 85% of which are situated in the United Kingdom.

We are reaching a point of no return to save these wonders, whilst this work is a call to action, it also seeks to reveal the beauty in the seemingly ordinary and mundane, uncovering the hidden details of a stream that many might pass without a second glance. It also challenges the belief that meaningful natural experiences require travel to distant and exotic places, and show this beauty can be found within a short distance of our homes.

The exhibition will run from 13th June 2026 to 21st June 2026, with a special opening reception and artist meet-and-greet on 12th June 2026 from 18.00 to 20.00h

Taking place at Oxford Brookes University, located at NHBB GALLERY – NHBB BUILDING

HEADINGTON HILL CAMPUS, OX3 0BP

The opening reception on 12th June is free and open to the public, and the artist will be available for interviews and to discuss the inspiration behind the work.

Following the opening, the exhibition can be viewed daily 10.00 – 16.00h

Admission to the gallery is free.
