"When I started swimming again in University, I realized that it was a great stress release. I swim for fitness, but also for relaxation. It can be meditative, with nothing but water and breath to consider. I especially enjoy floating on my back as the waves gently push me. The seaside/ocean is my favorite place for this. Otherwise, a swim in the Lido is the best start to any day, whatever the weather." Inge Larsen
The Swimmers Portraits project is to help raise awareness for London Pools Campaign. The ongoing project aims to represent the wide diversity of swimmers in London & help demonstrate why it is so important to keep pools 'alive' in London.
The project is a collaboration between photographer Emma Critchley and water movement artist Sophie Lewis. Waterbabies themselves, both are passionate about exploring why people love being in water. If you wish to help support London Pools Campaign and would like to have your portrait taken for the project please email Emma or Sophie. Shoots are held in various pools throughout London on a bi-monthly basis.
