B-boys Jay and Perry Howell are suspended in motion in Linda Brownlee’s surreal series, Headstands, No Hands, in which the 18-year-old twin performers skillfully turn the cityscape upside-down. Ireland-born and London-based Brownlee has long been fascinated by the physical brilliance of breakdancing and the hip-hop culture that feeds it. “I spent a summer in NYC in 2001, and I remember taking long slow commutes from my job to watch the dancers in the subways,” she says. “I was completely mesmerized.” The versatile photographer, whose fashion credits include shoots for GQ, Dazed & Confused and Vogue Russia, first came across the Howell brothers performing with their dance crew, Rain. Teaming up with stylist Ruth Higginbotham and using east London's concrete lots as her backdrop, Brownlee casts new light on how our bodies relate to the city environment. “I wanted to remove Jay and Perry from their natural dancing locations,” she says. “The quiet lines of this unfamiliar architecture seemed to support rather than distract from the twins' unassuming but powerful moves.”
