MERT ALAS & MARCUS PIGGOTT
PHOTOGRAPHER

Fashion photographers Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott were both born in 1971 in Turkey and Wales respectively and first met in England in 1994. They decided to become a photography team after working in completely different areas (classical music and graphic design). Their first photos for Dazed & Confused made the cover.
Meanwhile they contributed to major magazines including such as Italian and American Vogue, W Magazine, Pop Magazine, Numéro and Arena Homme Plus.
Strongly known for their portraits of sophisticated, powerful women, Alas and Piggott's photos lend an air of grace and unmistakable perfection to advertising.

Jan Saudek
INSPIRATION
(born in 13 May 1935, in Prague, Czechoslovakia)
is a Czech art photographer.
He was forced to work in a clandestine manner in a cellar, to avoid the attentions of the secret police, as his work turned to themes of personal erotic freedom, and used implicitly political symbols of corruption and innocence.
His best-known work is noted for its
hand-tinted portrayal of painterly dream worlds, often inhabited by nude or semi-nude figures surrounded by bare plaster walls or painted backdrops, frequently re-using identical elements (for instance, a clouded sky or a view of Prague's Charles Bridge). In this they echo the studio and tableaux works of mid nineteenth century erotic photographers, as well as the works of the painter Balthus, and the work of Bernard Faucon.Post the late 1970's his work got popularised.

GROTESQUE MOMENTS


So, when you are asked to make the reality of eccentricity cross-over from the roads of simple realisation to the uncanny conjectures that helps you meet your own substance and food for your deviance..
Well, my friends Giulia,Justyna,Bian and I went on a trip to meet our uncertain grotesque moments..when we are asked by our professor, Miss Serena Sala to build conjectures on the basis of ECCENTRICITY(happy hour)...We met with newer possibilities of eccentricity, in the form of: art/identity/lifestyle/situations........
My findings saw eccentricity as a medium:
-Where thoughts are suspended
-Where thoughts grow
-Where thoughts interact
-Where thoughts interlace
-Where thoughts produce a newer meaning
-Where thoughts usually die
This medium thus, changes into a newer world where thoughts are trapped and cannot transcend across.If in any way it finds a chance too, it gets labeled as fashion and utilised in the society as something new and never before understood or acted upon.Therefore, I find the birth of heros professing the same as some noted figures like Mathew Barney,Tim Burton, Nina Hagen, Leonor Fini, Katsura Funakoshi an many other notable players and the others in the same quest help us see a maverick form of creative/intellectual response to the monotonous social language.They help us find a certain sort of a coherence to a second reasoning or an  ulterior reasoning to the obvious and unidirectional thought.
Their deviant lifestyle from the society or sociologically patterned movements help us relocate our present with a revolutionary,radical moment. This medium and moment of realisation of a new reality needs to furnace and be voiced to find a respect and identity in our society...

We followed a grotesque adventure to quote our ideology on similar lines to find a purposeful beauty in our work.We performed a beauty shoot with make-up products by utilising parts of animals(tongue of cow, pork foot) and sea creatures(oyster,fish,octopus) as the models for our shoot.
We teamed conventional beauty products with unconventionally beauty-models......

The result-  "Beauty is, as beauty does!!"


The below is a link to the video of our behind the scene gig for the above mentioned photo shoot!!
