Since the 1990s, the London-born photographer Eileen Perrier has used her camera to capture individuals in their local communities – from Peckham to Paris and beyond – and this show highlights some of her finest work. Expect to see striking portraits interrogating cultural belonging, beauty standards and the family home, from the nineties until the present day. 

Why go: Perrier’s photographs do a great job at capturing community and questioning narratives, and that’s not always a given in portraiture.
