Jon Wakeman of East Street Arts (who brought the competition and exhibition together) commented on behalf of the judges: “We where bowled over be the high quality and variety of works submitted to 21st Century City, and it pays tribute to the level of activity and interest of photographers in the city to engage and share their work.”

Dyson Chambers is part of East Street Arts’ In Situ temporary exhibition programme while it finds new tennants following a recent renovation. Eamon Fox, associate director of DTZ, who are handling the leasing of the building added; “We are delighted just to be able to play a part in bringing more culture to Leeds City Centre.”
