Life on a Lead
The dogs of Venice
As the most photographed city in the world, Kate challenged herself to come up with an idea for photographing in Venice that reflects the life of everyday Venetians. Having explored various options, she found herself being drawn to the dogs of Venice accompanying their owners through the city.
In January 2017 she returned to the city with friends and spent her days exploring the city looking for dogs and their owners. The end result is an exhibition at the Joe Cornish Gallery to help celebrate their ‘dog week’! Kate has also produced a book to accompany the exhibition.
Kate has captured the essential spirit of our canine friends through this fun series of black and white images. They simply put a smile on your face.
