Conor Clinch

'I approach everything as an absolute outsider. It is the only way I can break so many rules.'

- Klaus Nomi (1944-1983)

Ryan as Klaus (2021) is a photographic work by Conor Clinch that is featured in SATURATION: the everyday transformed.

Together with model Ryan Zaman and fashion stylist Giulio Ventisei, the Irish photographer channels the spirit and otherworldly 'look' of the irrepressible performer Klaus Nomi. In other works featured in the exhibition, Clinch similarly elevates fashion photography for Vogue Italia through bold and unexpected use of form and colour.

Originally from Dublin, Conor Clinch is currently based in London and endeavours to tell stories in an authentic and inclusive way through his documentary-style films and distinct fashion imagery. Referring to SATURATION, he says: ‘I am so honored to be in the company of so many amazing Irish artists.’
