My Series Of Biker Portraits Express Identity, Masculinity And Sexuality

30

ADVERTISEMENT

Bikers say the best views are seen from the inside of motorcycle helmets, but I find my own views through a lens.

It took me four years of photo-shooting in three different continents and fifty motorcycle riders. Everything started in Berlin, and expanded through many European cities, from London and Rome to Copenhagen and Paris. More recently this project took place in Australia and California.

However, ‘Bikershot’ is not a journalistic journey. It is not a documentary approach to describing a community and its inherent codes, attitudes and rules. It is rather an exploration of the personality hidden inside the leather jacket.

Each portrait was built on the previous one, and set the tone for the one to follow. In this way, every session was a unique experience, an exploration; a mutual discovery. And I am honored that some of the heroes I met became real friends with.

    Bikershot is an ongoing project exploring biker culture through intimate portraits. A culture balancing extreme individualism with a strong tribal affiliation, where brands, style and behaviours are the grammar defining the language. Getting into this specific linguistics is therefore an iterative process where each portrait is built on the previous one.
