‘Snowbound’: Sam Mellish’s GB Park and Pipe Photo Exhibition
SOURCE headed down to House of Vans in London on January 25 for the launch of ‘Snowbound’, a photo exhibition by photographers Sam Mellish and Matt Georges, who followed GB Park and Pipe (Team GB skiers and snowboarders) across the globe for the past 18 months, in the run up to the 2018 Winter Olympics, which kicks off in South Korea on February 8.
Sam Mellish curated the exhibition, which included images from Quebec to Switzerland, Australia and more and the event saw a gathering of the UK’s snowsports scene on the day Team GB’s Olympic team was officially announced.
Stay tuned to SOURCE for our upcoming feature on GB Park and Pipe’s new training facility in Livigno, Italy and their #RadicalGains philosophy.
