A new photo project set to be exhibited at a London art venue in October has already drawn ire from many, including Qataris.

The project, dubbed " Harrodsburg," by photographer and social activist Dougie Wallace, documents "the growing wealth divide" in London at the footsteps of the Qatari-owned Harrods department store.

According to Wallace, the project, a collection of pictures showcasing wealthy shoppers in the Knightsbridge district, is a culmination of "the rising economic and political power of the 'one per cent'."

The photos provide an illustration of the sort of clientele that, for the artist, cause a surge in retail and consumer prices, leading to a growing wealth inequality.
