Written and photographed by Kenedee Hodges
“Kenedee, Freddie, Prince and George” is a collection of self-portraits that recreate photographs of musicians from 1970 through the ’80s.
This work is influenced by Freddie Mercury, Prince
The inspiration for these photographs is drawn from old film photographs in their early careers. As a way to visually represent the influence that has imprinted on the artist’s life, all of the images shown are self-portraits. The lighting scenarios for each photograph are unique to each character — based on the musician, how the artist feels that she relates to them and how she feels they should be portrayed. “Kenedee, Freddie, Prince and George” is entirely shot in-studio on medium format black-and-white film.
