Instagrammer in Residence

William Jones (June 2019)

'I was born and raised in London. I studied Music Production, but have always had an affection for all things art related'

@ wwww.home

'My interest in photography began in 2017 when I found an Olympus Trip 35 whilst clearing out my granddad's house.

As well as music and photography I like to draw, print and collaborate with other artists. I only have informal training in visual arts but I love to do it'

What inspires you about the Barbican?

'The Barbican is such a big, ambitious, confusing, beautiful place. I love to just wander around and get lost in it. I’m always discovering new parts.

It is a place where people can go to slow down and study, hang out, meet friends and even sleep in without being expected to buy something or move on - it reminds me of the Piazza’s in Italy where people go to sit and watch the life around them, whilst meeting friends and neighbours. Sort of like a public living room, but for everyone from around the world.

This kind of thing is hard to find in London.'
