Luke Agbaimoni's latest project, focussing on capturing contrast in the London underground

There are currently 272 London Underground, 113 Overground and 45 Docklands Light Railway stations. Luke Agbaimoni has been slowly attempting to capture visual moments at each one.

In his previous books, Tube Mapper Project photographer Luke Agbaimoni has described the London Underground as a living and breathing museum of the old and the new – and so Contrast: Photography on the London Underground was born. Here, he explores what makes the Underground stand out, with the contrast of sights and sounds as we travel through the city. Timeless hallways, modern architecture, old and new features everywhere … This collection of photography embraces the extreme variety of visual juxtapositions that you can encounter navigating the London Underground network.

LUKE AGBAIMONI has an arts background with a degree in Graphic Design. He started his career as a web designer in London's Docklands, where he began taking photos. In 2010 he entered and won a photography competition run by TFL, the first prize being what would become his first serious camera, and soon embarked upon an ambitious project to map moments on the Underground, setting up the accompanying website tubemapper.com. He lives in London.
