Olympia Moments Ltd
‘There’s a book to be written about the rooms above pubs- they are the moots, the workshops, the laboratories and rehearsal rooms, the alternative surgeries and secret conclaves of the English.’ So wrote the Times restaurant critic, A.A. Gill, himself respectably front of house, but inclined nevertheless to the shadows. ' Paul Davies, 2015
A small group of women in London, UK, called their company ‘Olympia Moments’, and for 10 years decided to continue traditional striptease on their own terms as an underground party scene. The events took place in London pubs, you had to be recommended to go, the women organised the evenings themselves and made up their own rules. A collaboration with writer/illustrator Paul Davies and photographed between 2001-8. Published as a leather bound limited edition artists' book.
