Queens Road, London
Early afternoon winter sunshine on another battered South London kiosk. Layer upon layer of London stories backed up and ignored. Thousands of people must walk passed this every day and no one sees it apart from the occasional person who feels compelled to leave their mark. If you look closely someone has written 'Bow E3'. I happen to live in Bow E3 but I can tell you this wasn't me. I can also tell you this isn't an easy cycle either, Postcode warfare before our very eyes. The heavy sun captures exactly how we feel about our beloved phone kiosks, another staple of our lives that has had its day.
Telephone Booths is a continuation of my debut series 'Hand Dryers'. Both series capture the everyday objects surrounding us that we fail to notice to examine what they say about us and the way we treat the world around us.
What is the difference between Open Edition and Limited Edition prints?
Open edition prints only come in one size and are simply printed on Matt Archival paper and shipped straight to you. There is no limit to how many will be printed.
Limited Edition prints are typically printed on a Gloss paper, come in several sizes and finish options (framing / acrylic mount), and are signed and editioned by Sam. There are a limited number printed in each size and once they're gone they're gone.

Samuels art makes our house feel alive and vibrant. I am forever finding new details within each image. Samuel was extremely helpful when helping us find the perfect images for our home. He was always extremely friendly and personable as well as highly professional.
Rickie Haywood-Williams, BBC Radio 1
His work is so unique and arresting. He is somehow able to capture the 'ordinary' in a way that makes it feel truly extraordinary. I'm so excited to see his work in our home.
Lisa Bowcot, Interior Designer
Could we ever need more insight than we do now about how to dry our hands in washrooms while touching almost nothing? Samuel Ryde, a British photographer, pays homage to air blowers
