Biography

Georgina Cook (b. 1981) is a photographer and artist with a focus on her relationship to place. While known for her documentation and collaboration with London’s music scenes and youth communities, Georgina’s work is increasingly centred around the folklore, landscapes and mythology that inform the places she finds herself in and how they relate to her own identity, as well as her almost life-long relationship with photography.
