Background
My World Shared is the first exhibition by IGers London. IGers London are a group of individuals from London and beyond with a shared passion for iPhoneography, and more specifically a free iPhone app called Instagram.
The idea of the exhibition came out of an Instameet held in the Brick Lane area, a busy vibrant part of London. Wouldn’t it be amazing to see the iPhone created works come to life in a gallery space? So IGers London first Instagram exhibition is born.
My World Shared captures the concept of Instagram – to record in images our world around us, our lives, our outlook, our views, and share that view with the rest of the world. It is an individual view, but one that others can relate to, like postcards from a friend.

My World Shared Exhibition will take place at the East Gallery – Brick Lane – London.
The Exhibition will be opened for Public on the 22nd and 23rd of October 2o11, from 12pm until 8pm.
