EDITORS COMMENTS
Katy Baldock, a remarkable circus performer, defied all odds to pursue her passion for acrobatics. This print captures Katy's intense training and dedication as she practices on the trapeze in the iconic Big Top Tent at Streatham Common, London. Taken in September 1999 when she was just 18 years old, this image showcases her incredible talent and determination. What makes Katy's story even more inspiring is her journey from homelessness to the circus stage. Having experienced a difficult past as a former homeless person, Katy found hope through Centrepoint Homeless Youth Charity. It was there that she stumbled upon an advertisement that would change her life forever - an opportunity to join the circus. With unwavering courage and raw talent, Katy seized this chance and embarked on a path of transformation. The photograph by John Ferguson beautifully encapsulates both the physicality of her training and the emotional strength behind it. This snapshot from the 1990s transports us back to an era where entertainment thrived under big tops like Streatham Common's. It serves as a reminder of how photography can freeze moments in time while evoking nostalgia for those who witnessed such spectacles firsthand. Katy Baldock's story reminds us that dreams are within reach if we dare to chase them relentlessly – no matter our background or circumstances.
