The Community Portrait exhibition explores the history of photography from 1840s glass-plate techniques, through to current digital techniques, and onwards towards to a potential future involving AI. Featuring images taken by local school-age children, Bedford College students, community groups and professional photographers. Co-produced by Bedford Creative Arts, in partnership with Fujifilm, it showcases the Bedford community through their own portraits, whilst inviting the viewer to reflect on the art of image-making through the decades and beyond. This project is supported by Arts Council England, The Wixamtree Trust, The Steel Charitable Trust and sponsored by Fujifilm.
