These paintings depicted in this book are of a very turbulent time of the painter growing up life and the desperations to capture the state of being through any style necessary, without prior experiences. On reflection, those growing up trials and tribulations are not dissimilar, however, how the dissimilar is interpreted through life experiences form the individual's perspectives. The imagery used are of our daily life for many in the west but differ around the world and while the perspective maybe subjective, messages of that are dissimilar; love, pain, heartache and betrayal.

East End Photos, through Mayar's eyes, BBQ at Bancroft, takes you back to 2007 and in an East London Estate in Tower Hamlets, where the TMO (Tenants management Organisation) with the residents organised a Fun Day, to bring the people of the estates to come together.
