The Election Project's photostream

As the official Election Artist, photographer Simon Roberts has been commissioned by the House of Commons to produce a series of artworks that respond to the 2010 UK General Election. He will be spending the 17 days of official political campaigning traversing the country in a motorhome photographing local landscapes and scenes that are connected
to this year's General Election.

Simon is also encouraging the public to get involved in the commission, in an attempt to create the first UK mass citizen-journalist political project of its kind. He is encouraging people to tell their own stories by sending in photographs of political activity in their area. These photos will form an on-line gallery with some being edited and displayed alongside his own
photographs as part of the final artwork exhibited in the House of Commons this summer.

Why not get involved and send some photographs? They may be selected for an exhibition at the House of Commons this summer!
