Leigh984, The creative portfolio of Leigh Spencer

As part of the National Galleries "Coming Home" project well known portraits are "loaned" to the place most linked to the person featured, in this case King Richard III whose remains where famously found under a car park in the city of Leicester in 2012. The (surprisingly small) late 16th century portrait is hung at the New Walk Museum in the city as the centerpiece of an exhibition exploring the story of the King, the discovery of his remains and what these reveal about his life and death. The exhibition in partnership with Leicester Cathedral and The King Richard Visitor Center runs until September 22nd 2019 and is well worth a visit to see this historic portrait in person.

Filmed at various points along the banks of the River Thames in London, this short film explores peoples patterns of movement and their interactions with the structures around them Featuring a number of well known landmarks such as the Millennium Bridge, St Pauls Cathedral and Tower Bridge (complete with Olympic rings), The piece attempts to capture a portrait of the area during one day (30.06.2012) as the capital prepares to host the Olympic games in 2012.
