Nadine Scarlett is a Jamaican-British fashion and portrait photographer with a passion for telling stories. Her work explores culture and identity, heavily influenced by her own personal environment. She is fascinated by documenting people and subcultures, drawing on personal, real-life environments to inspire my concept lead work.
A reminder that we must pay homage and celebrate the beauty of our culture. ‘An Ode To The Panthers‘ is a series that recognises the presence of black culture within British history; transforming political discourse into a concept-led narrative. Often misrepresented, the Panthers fearlessly fought for racial justice and became a powerful worldwide movement. Their infamous aesthetic still exists within modern fashion and stands as a testimony to the power of their legacy. The intelligence they recognised within themselves was not often understood at the time. But seeing the change they brought forward, now paints them as the wise.
