Mark Borthwick digs deep into his archive of early work shot on Pola Pan - a 35ml black and white instant developing Polaroid film which existed exclusively during these years. The young experimental photographer was elliptically charmed by this film, which taught him the fragility of time and unwittingly encouraged him to trust in the virtues of mistakes, shaping his signature dreamy photographic aesthetic. Featuring his documentation of the streets of Paris and New York in the 80 s and 90 s; portraits of family and friends, early fashion work featuring iconic models such as: Kate Moss, Carolyn Murphy, Kristen Owen and Stella Tenant; collaborations with fashion designers such as Maria Cornejo, John Galliano and his muses such as Chloe Sevigny, Kim Gordon, Jane Birkin, Marianne Faithful, Michael Hutchinson, Vanessa Paradise, and his iconic album covers for Sinead O Connor. This will be the first major book of Borthwick s created over the last 15 years. A groundbreaking fashion photographer, artist and musician, this book will appeal to the legion of devoted fans of fashion, contemporary art, photography and the alternative music scene.
