Mom

by Terry Richardson

There s little need to say anything about Terry Richardson as everything has already been said! But once again, with this stunning series of images Terry delves deeply and indiscriminately into the world with his camera revealing the all too personal nature of his life... his family life. Terry s images don t desist to shock, be it following his colourful yet frail mother or tracking his father s life and the decline of his mental health though his last days.... Terry s camera has no boundaries, no judgement, just the simple truth of the snapshot, an intimate portrait of his family and in turn more or less a self-portrait of Terry Richardson the son. The double book in a sleeve is immaculately art directed by Suburbia Media and comes in the usual limited edition!

About the author

Richardson has shot campaigns for Marc Jacobs, Aldo, Supreme, Tom Ford, and Yves Saint Laurent among others. He has also done magazine editorials for publications such as Rolling Stone, GQ, Vogue, Vanity Fair, i-D, and Vice.
There are several repeating themes in Richardson's work, notably that of putting high-profile celebrities in mundane situations and photographing them using traditionally pedestrian methods, such as the use of an instant camera.
His work also explores ideas of sexuality, with many of the pieces featured in his books Kibosh and Terryworld depicting full-frontal nudity and both simulated and unsimulated sexual acts.
Initially, many of Richardson's subjects would be shot before a white background but he eventually expanded to other backdrops. He is also well known for posing with his subjects, often trading his trademark glasses with them so they may "pretend to be him" and vice versa.
