What Makes a Man
Taking inspiration from my own personal photographs of fashion and nature, and products from retail websites I created moodboards to define the visual style of the final images included in my “The Colour of Man” publication.
Moodboards
Final Work
Isaac was a first year photography student inspired by streetwear, which helped him land a job at the MKI miyuki ZOKU store in Leeds.
Isaac’s role made it all the more interesting to take inspiration from brands such as this, whilst playing with more feminine details. A real focus on textures and close up shots of the clothing aimed to blur the gender lines.
Bringing together the inspiration images with photographs of the clothing sought to pose the question “What Makes a Man?”.
Is it his surroundings, his upbringing, his environment?
Does this inform the way he dresses, the clothes that he picks out each morning to show the world?
