LONDON'S longest running art festival Deptford X is back for its 12th successful year and, as its latest artworks and projects show, is as ambitious as ever.
From Peter Anderson's photographs of youth street fashion to Sue Lawe's Creekery, where pieces of modern Willow Ware are placed in the mudbanks of the creek, the art extravaganza hopes to tap into the fabric of everyday life in Deptford.
The Re-enactment of the Assassination of Raoul Moat by Mark McGowan has already sparked controversy this week after the artist played the part of a newsreader, policemen and Moat in his show about the recent killings in Northumberland.
Mark Tichner has been chosen as this year's lead artist and as well as producing large-scale billboard works which have been installed around the area, he has been working with students from Deptford Green School to produce new artworks which can now be seen on refuse trucks.
Titchner has also co-selected a diverse range of experimental projects, artworks and performances by more than 25 artists.
