Yasmina Atta, Hackney, London, 2020
‘Fashion photography does not have to be inaccessible, untouchable, unattainable (as I felt it was growing up); it can also be the everyday and imperfect, while filling subject(s) with power and agency, which is a common fundamental core throughout myself, Camila Falquez, Nadine Ijewere and Alexandra Von Fuerst’s work. It doesn’t have to be perfect, it doesn’t have to be for a certain type of person, class, demographic, nor does it need to perpetuate elitist culture within fashion imagery’
