Someone has made a book of East Slope photos
Viva la East Slope
Just when we thought we had said our goodbyes, East Slope lives on eternally in the form of a book.
Immortalizing the rather grotty accommodation and those who live there, "The East Slope Photography Project" captures the spirit of the beloved bar and halls.
Speaking to the creator of the book, Zofia Dawes (one of the final residents of the halls), she told The Tab Sussex: "I originally decided to photograph East Slope because I really enjoyed it's unique atmosphere."
The project had a unique conception, as Zofia tells us: "I started the project by making a bunch of leaflets which where purposely made to look like an eviction letter in relation to the fact that soon we would all be evicted. I also thought it was quite a funny way to capture peoples attention."
"After knocking on people's doors and asking people if they wanted to be involved, I made a list of the people that wanted to be included and started visiting the houses. I would often go round East Slope once a day for a period of 2 months and capture the daily life of East slope.
"This was very exciting for me as I was able to talk to a lot of people who where very grateful to what I was doing because quite a lot of us where sad to see East Slope go."
The book can be purchased by contacting the Facebook page – but be quick, there's only 37 copies.
