A chameleonic woman shape-shifts to adopt a multitude of personas in these seductive Polaroids by Duran Duran keyboardist-turned-photographer Nick Rhodes. A founding member of the legendary New Romantic pop outfit, Birmingham-born Rhodes had originally intended the shots to feature on the sleeve to forthcoming album from side-project TV Mania. He soon realized that the images, which channel an Italian cult cinema aesthetic, worked as a series in their own right. The result is Bei Incubi, an exhibition comprising of 20 Polaroids in addition to a selection of silkscreen and photographic prints that will be unveiled next week in London. “Given our modern predicament, you can never be quite sure how much computer tampering has taken place to create the images we see in magazines and on gallery walls,” he says of his adopted medium. “There is something special about clicking a button and watching a unique print develop. There is only one, you cannot change anything or duplicate it in the same format.” The works on display follow the many metamorphoses of an imagined character—the fame-obsessed daughter of a futuristic, dysfunctional family—as she transforms from a photogenic beauty to an abstract, even nightmarish vision. “One of the main challenges for me was to try to create photos that look like paintings, but without using computers in post-production,” says Rhodes. “Live dangerously—take a Polaroid.”
