When the British photographer Mark Power pitched up at the Millennium Dome construction site in 1997, he negotiated something rare: complete artistic freedom. No shot lists. No creative directors hovering. Just trust that he'd deliver something worthwhile. Before he took a single picture, he secured the liberty to photograph what he wanted, how he wanted.
That principle – trust on both sides, freedom within the commercial framework – has shaped his commissioned practice. Now, his 17th monograph, Fashion (out December UK, January US) brings together 287 images from 27 years of industrial commissions across 23 countries, stripped of all captions and context.
