About the Artist:

I'm Ripley Williamson-King, a Bristol-based photographer with lived experience of chronic depression and managing poor mental health caused by childhood trauma.

I've spent years processing feelings through photographic images. What Keeps Us looks at the small moments that keep us going from someone who knows what it means to need them.

Years of therapy and a slowly built but beautiful support network have given me the confidence to open up. By gathering and sharing stories from others who understand what it means to hold on, I am creating an exhibition to open space to celebrate these moments.

The small things can be everything.
