I’ve photographed Sharon Horgan three times. This was the first time, in 2010, when she gamely came all the way over to my studio in Ladbroke Grove from Hackney to take part in a project that involved photographing 140 people that I had met on Twitter, where she went by the handle of ‘realsharhorgan’
From the east she brought the perfect demonstration of ‘Hoxton Toe’ - the ability to stand with your feet pointed inwards like a new born foal raised entirely on a diet of The Libertines and American Apparel adverts. (Slide 2)
Heady days.
She is also, according to my wife, the coolest person I have ever photographed,
“And I include Kris Kristofferson in that.”
Watch ‘Youth’, her new show on Sky. The woman is a genius.
See slide 4 for the final Twitter piece: ‘ONE HUNDRED AND FORTY CHARACTERS’. Sharon is 2nd row from bottom, 5th from right.
