SUMMARY

The Bristol Photo Festival, an international biennial, features a 'Time Machine' theme for its third edition, exploring time as layered and cyclical rather than linear. The festival presents multiple exhibitions by artists like Joy Gregory, Akshay Mahajan, and Michel Campeau, alongside archives and group shows. These works delve into themes of migration, memory, collective experience, alternative futures, and the persistence of history. The festival aims to provide a framework for understanding photography's connection to past, present, and future, with free exhibitions running through November.
