Feeling Seen: The Photographs Of Campbell Addy
Candid and personal, dazzling in its colour and immediacy, this first and only monograph from a rising star of the photography scene features work from major labels and magazines, outtakes from photo shoots and newly commissioned texts from Edward Enninful and Ekow Eshun on the importance of authenticity. Diversity behind and in front of the camera.
From landmark portraits of the likes of Kendall Jenner, FKA Twigs, and Tyler, the Creator to cover shoots for leading magazines including Time, Rolling Stone, and Garage, Campbell Addy has quickly become one of the most in-demand photographers of his generation. The book opens with a foreword by British Vogues editor-in-chief Edward Enninful, discussing the powerful intersection of photography, race, beauty, and representation. This is followed by a wide-ranging selection of Addy’s striking photographs, ranging from standout magazine and fashion assignments to candid portraits. Featuring recognizable covers alongside previously unreleased outtakes and never-before-seen photographs, viewers are given an insight into Addy’s creative process on set. Quotes from prominent Black figures, including Naomi Campbell and Nadine Ijewere, are woven among Addy’s striking images, in which these pioneering Black creatives reflect on the first time they felt seen in their industry. The book closes with a deeper exploration of Addy’s most personal images and influences, paying homage to the heritage of Black photographers through the work of Ajamu and James Barnor. In conversation with curator and writer Ekow Eshun, Addy balances his own experiences as a Black queer photographer who left his Jehovah’s Witness family home at sixteen with broader questions of identity, intimacy, and art that many creatives face today. Charged with energy, compassion, and authenticity, this inaugural monograph signals a major talent whose influence and stature will only grow with time.
