Photographic Project
Gotts' recent project is based around the history of the Savoy Hotel, London, England.
In December 2007 the Savoy Hotel is being closed down for two years for a total revamp. Gotts spent a period of time photographing different rooms and items from the hotel, with each image containing a celebrity to highlight the glamorous lifestyle of the Savoy; but none of the celebrities have been named in the project as it is the Savoy that is the star of the photography and the celebrities are just props used to decorate the rooms or anecdotes.
