Back turned, Monica embodies Gabriel Moses’ vision of a muse in a limited edition photographic print.

Sultry and softly-lit, Moses shrouds Monica in red. The image epitomises his ability to build timeless images that revisit the same world again and again, yet capture the individual spirit of his subjects. This image was created in close collaboration with the photographers’ model and muse, Ade. Moses set out to create an environment where she could express herself freely and counts the resulting image amongst his favourites.

Monica (2024) belongs to the series Regina, a photographic tribute by Moses to the women who have and continue to shape his world.

I tend to hand the creative to my subjects. Adit Ajhok Deng is amazing, and someone I had wanted to work with for a long time. For me it was about allowing her to feel comfortable – creating that space for her to express herself.

Gabriel Moses has youth on his side – “I work like a child, we all have imaginations, but I feel like we lose a lot of that with age.” The young director and photographer has already made a name for himself with his captivating portraits. Signature soft-lit light creates a rich canvas for storytelling around creativity – whether that’s music, dance, fashion. Gabriel shot to fame at eighteen years old when he landed a Nike campaign. After that, the milestones came in quick succession, from being Dazed magazine’s youngest cover photographer to a landmark debut at 180 Studios in London. The exhibition, Regina (2023), was a love letter to all that made him – his Nigerian heritage, his South London stomping grounds, and his mother.
