Westlab + Gallery opened its doors in October of 2020, after being built from the ground up by Aiden West. After running the lab for over a year and a half, the lab changed hands from Aiden to his old friend and collaborator in celluloid, Shrey Mendiratta. Since May of 2022, Shrey has been running Westlab + Gallery, continuing to serve the film photography needs of our community in Bushwick, and growing the shop to become a community hub for artists in the neighborhood.
