I'm not sure my strategy of drinking more coffee to psych myself up to leave the flat is a very effective one, given that it tends to mean I get increasingly anxious instead.
I am going to do A Thing today though, probably go to the Deutsche Borse exhibition at the Photographer's Gallery https://thephotographersgallery.org.uk/whats-on/deutsche-borse-photography-foundation-prize-2023 I am off all this week and set myself the target of Doing An Identifiable Thing every day. That feels achievable.
I did go to see the Deutsche Borse exhibition at the #PhotographersGallery but it suffers from the place being small enough that you don't really get to see much from any entrant - this is a perennial issue there.
However "A Hard Man Is Good To Find!" https://thephotographersgallery.org.uk/whats-on/hard-man-good-find is one of their solid London social documentary pieces, in this case about post-war "male physique photography". Gives context not only of society at the time but also individual models and photographers.
