  • About me:  Tashs' Festival, Travellin' and Environmental Archives.

    I am a photographer with a special interest to document the lives of travelling people and those attending Festivals, Stonehenge etc, what the press often describe as 'New Age Travellers'.

    With my photography, I have tried to say something of the wide variety of people engaged in 'Alternatives', and youths' many sub-cultures and to present a more positive view.

    I have photographed many free and commercial events and have, in recent years, extended my work to include dance parties ('rave culture'), gay-rights events, environmental direct actions, and protest against the Criminal Justice Act and more recently, issues surrounding the Global Capitalism.

    Further, police surveillance has recently become a very important subject for me!

    In recognition of this work, received a 'Winston' from Privacy International, at the 1998 'Big Brother' Awards. The citation reads: "Alan Lodge is a photographer who has spent more than a decade raising awareness of front-line police surveillance activities, particularly the endemic practice of photographing demonstrators and activists".

    I am currently involved with the setting up and administration of Nottinghamshire Indymedia. An 'open-publishing' system which is part of an international 'alternative media' network.

    I am based in Nottingham, UK.
