Dirt needn't always be unattractive. A bit of grime can infer authenticity and lend a little scruff for the audience to grip.
The shoot was a branding exercise for Idol magazine. I wanted something raw and organic - like a tired old pair of shoes, tossed in the corner after a heavy night out. Spilt lager, vomit, broken glass... the detritus of a good time.
Often we desire the things that elude us most. Many crave acceptance, a sense of belonging. Others hunger for security. The girls are seen to protect each other and jealously guard their clique. We as mere gate crashers can do little more than look on and veil our envy.
This was never the party, only the hangover.
