"London is one of The Most diverse cities in The World , our diversity is one of our greatest strengths," says Ansong.

"Being African-British, born and bred in London, I wanted to create a series that celebrates the ethnographic that represents our cities.

"For my project, Deep-rooted, I asked people to pose for me using African prints as a poetic means to explore our roots, through the use Of Colours , patterns and textures.

"Everyone has a story to tell, whether it's culturally or not. London makes everyone Different - and that's a good thing. "

"As a Punjabi Muslim woman in The West , I Am constantly negotiating contrasting cultural subjectivities," says Tasnim.

"My work attempts to capture the disorientation, displacement and elation experienced by those who exist at the intersection of these spheres.

"London is a place where I can freely explore all aspects of my identity and, through the use of colour and fabric, I envision the harmony and disjointedness that arises when conflicting ideologies converge. "

Timi Akindele-Ajani

See Me Not is Akindele-Ajani's exploration of how humans interact in The City and how people behave towards those who work within the service industry.

"They refuse to treat them as individuals, instead they interact with them much like they would with a machine", he says.

"At present, we are The Most globalised we have ever been in the history of humanity, yet so disconnected," Adesanya says.

"I found this paradox to be a pressing discussion in London and wondered. . What if a consistent conversation could emerge? Not from the politicians, not from the mayors or county leaders, but from the people on the ground now? What then?

"With a camera, globe and those intentions in mind, I took to The Streets to discover what grounded the people of London when the struggles and pressures of life unsettled their foundation. "
