It has often been my dream
Johnny Green (2010)
“It has often been my dream, to live with one who wasn’t there” Neil Young, Will To Love
It has often been my dream was an intermediary body of work, including photographs from both God knows how I adore life and Those eyes are enough to take this heart of mine, as well as new material. It was exhibited in the pop-up shop J. Green & Son on Woburn Walk in Bloomsbury, central London, acquired with the help of Camden Council for a month in late 2010 and early 2011. Opening and closing parties were held, along with two concerts and a sixth form photography workshop, as well as raising money for Card Aid.
In 2012 It has often been my dream travelled to Trementina Artes in Bogotá, Colombia, for a six-week residency where a new narrative was created. The photographs featured here amount to all images that were printed and exhibited in either the London or Bogotá shows. A new film, Heart & Soul, was premiered in Bogotá, along with screenings of films God knows how I adore life and Those eyes are enough to take this heart of mine, detailed below.
