05 Jun In Conversation with Photographer Artist David Gwinnutt

In this episode of The Cutlery Club Conversations I talk to my lovely friend and very talented artist, David Gwinnutt. It’s a very chilled conversation between two friends

– me sipping tea on my sofa, David nursing a tequila hangover with a big glass of water! You’ll get a sense of who he is from our banter and hopefully enjoy the lightheartedness of it all. Apologies for any sound discrepancies at the beginning – I’m a novice at this and am trying to embrace the imperfectness of all I do!

He was an incredible guest speaker at one of the salons and I felt really fortunate to have him hosting with me, sharing the most amazing stories of all the iconic queer people he has photographed over the past few decades and how those opportunities came about. Those stories and anecdotes can also be found in his fabulous book, The White Camera Diaries, which has a permanent place on my coffee table at home.

He has achieved many great things, from having his work featured in the National Portrait Gallery – and more recently, The Photographers Gallery in Romilly Street, London W1 – to creating the iconic Pink Jack flag which represents the LGBT community and symbolises inclusivity.

I really hope you enjoy. Do let me know your thoughts and feedback. Constructive ones only
