Celebrating Break Mission – A Huawei P10 Living Gallery in association with Dazed Magazine, Featuring Photographer & Videographer Anthony ‘Shintai’ Amao.

Anthony Shintai Amao’s 10 stunning portraits of his fellow Breakers celebrates both Birmingham’s oft-neglected Breakin’ scene, and the work Break Mission do for the city’s needy.

See the 10 images that helped Break Mission earn £10,000 funding for yourself, in this stunning Living Gallery.

• TIMES – 17 January at 9:00 to 21 January at 20:00 Bullring, B5 4BU Birmingham, United Kingdom

  Come back throughout the week for live Breakin’ performances.

Reveal the Real You. Prove the Power of Photography

Our passions define who we are. So Huawei and Dazed asked some of today’s most creative up-and-coming photographers to celebrate the communities that reveal their true selves using the Huawei P10; a dual lens camera phone built on the century-long legacy of Leica, the original street photography pioneers.

From a shortlist of twenty powerful entries, judges from Leica Galleries International and Arts Impact Fund selected just three overall winners. Each received £10,000 for their community, but only one walked away with a Living Gallery of their work: Anthony Shintai Amao, with his impressive celebration of Birmingham’s Break Mission.
