Gay Bingo at the ICA

Darrell — Sun, 07 Feb 2010 10:38:17 +0000

The last ever Gay Bingo at the ICA (according to Jonny, shut down due to complaints from the Queen herself. Maybe). 3D-themed, crowded and ridiculously fun. As always. Pix here.

Yagg

French LGBT site yagg.com is running a feature on gay London — with some of my Dalston Superstore pix in the mix…

Masumi Tipsy Saito in Tokyo

Darrell — Wed, 20 Jan 2010 08:51:01 +0000

Masumi has posted some snaps of her performance on 15 Jan at the Art Complex Center of Tokyo. Looks fabulous, and I regret I couldn’t make it over to see the show. In her photos you can also see some pictures we shot November last year to accompany the performance.

More to come, hopefully, on her return to London…

Hot Chip

Darrell — Tue, 12 Jan 2010 22:59:09 +0000

Shot Hot Chip at their studio last night for TRAX Magazine. I will upload the rest of the photos when it hits the presses. In the meantime, the one above is a sneak preview… [thanks Mariano for setting this up]

‘Really, I want every image to be a kind of self-portrait,’ he says. ‘If I take a picture of that apple on the table, it can be a self-portrait.’ How? I ask. ‘By using whatever is necessary to be true to myself: the light, the darkness, the hunger I have and the innocence. By not thinking. By being as primitive as possible, as raw as possible, as horrible as possible. Using my nerve and my heart and my gut. Then, only after shooting, I will use my brain to select and edit. This is the beautiful and fantastic thing about photography.’

[Yes it is]
