Artist Book · Experimental Fashion Photography · 2023
Fashion Fortress is an experimental photographic project exploring fashion, image making and the creative possibilities of the camera.
Influenced by the work of fashion photographer Nick Knight, I approached this project as an opportunity to experiment beyond conventional photographic techniques. I explored different lens techniques and ways of manipulating the image in-camera, working towards a bold, expressive aesthetic that allowed the photographs to become more than straightforward representations of fashion.
The process was just as important as the final images. Experimentation, curiosity and a willingness to try something different shaped the work, allowing me to explore how photography can transform the way we see clothing, form and identity.
The resulting artist book brings the images together in a physical sequence, allowing the visual language of the project to unfold across its pages.
