Future Shock


Love me, hate me, envy me. But never ignore me. This is what the model in the picture is trying to tell us. His pose is so defiant and provocative, that the picture is simply irresistible.

British photographer
David Sims made a series for V MAGAZINE (nº45) called Future Shock: surrealistic models with dubious behaviour in black and white. The chosen photograph depicts the purest naugthy and rebel essence of a half naked guy with golden trousers and huge bracelets. This is fleeting youth. This is the future. Future shock.

Black or white. Choose. Gay or straight. Hate or love. Rich or poor. Long hair or short hair. Fat or fit. Beautiful or awful. Chic or kitsch. Avoid the happy medium. Escape from bisexuals, middle-class people and grey colour. Choose. Indifference is death and
David knows it.

Balenciaga, Prada, Givenchy, Calvin Klein and Burberry trust
David Sims. Arena Homme Plus, British Vogue, Dazed & Confused and Vogue Homme International love his work. His advertising clients have included Pepsi, Helmut Lang, Hugo Boss, Louis Vuitton and Jil Sander. Everybody loves David Sims.

It is all about the anti-indifference. How to keep people’s attention. How to be real in other’s life. How to remain forever.
David Sims catches the essence of a certain moment. He captures that moment that is gone forever and becomes eternal.
