Kenneth Grange shirt shot for Margaret Howell

2010-01-24T05:23:00.000-08:00

Shot recently with Margaret Howell to show off a new shirt designed out of a collaboration between Kenneth Grange and Margaret Howell.

“For me this project has been challenging because, instead of being in total control of my own design, I’ve had to work out someone else’s requirements and ideas, while satisfying my own aesthetic – not easy. Yet this is something Kenneth Grange routinely does in the field of industrial design throughout his long, versatile and successful career.”

- Margaret Howell

“At 80 new commissions come through the door more rarely. So when Margaret calls to suggest the collaboration my heart lifts. And even more is the treat when, ignoring the suit I made myself at art school, this would be first sally into her world.

Only to find that our worlds are surprisingly alike. It is in the details, as Mies van der Rohe said, that God lives.”

- Kenneth Grange

I have had some unprocessed film in my cupboard for a while and thought it was about time to get the rolls processed. Some of it turns out to have been in there for almost 9 years. Here are the best bits so far.

The Wheels of the Creative Industries.

2009-09-30T11:07:00.000-07:00

This is the first roll of a project I have embarked on to photograph the creative people I come in contact with. Designers, Photographers, Animators, Hairdressers and generally anyone involved in or around a creative pursuit.

Oh! They all use their bicycles to get around this sprawling metropolis in which we live and work.

If I know you and you would like to be photographed with your cycle please get in touch work@johnhooper.net

The Haunts, press shoot.

2009-09-14T05:48:00.000-07:00

A good day spent shooting Haunts (Black Records)at a stables in Kent, (the name and address of which will be added once I remember). The shoot was influenced by the film "Haunts (1977), May Britt plays a seemingly innocent farm girl convinced that her slovenly uncle (Cameron Mitchell) is the man responsible for the bloody scissor-murders of several local girls."
