With his second book Apiary, Robin Friend continues to explore the surreal and sinister haunting of the British landscape: he uses a cinematic lens to uncover the dark underbelly of Lewes, a town in South East England renowned for its wild, bacchanalian, festivities around Guy Fawkes’ Night. This apocalyptic, nocturnal series is flirting with notions of democracy and resistance, reflecting a contemporary moment where ideas of identity and cohesion feel stretched to a breaking point.
