Report: ‘I call them erotic landscapes’: fashion photographer Tim Walker on his powerful tapestry of queer Britain

The Guardian — Culture has reported on “Report: ‘I call them erotic landscapes’: fashion photographer Tim Walker on his powerful tapestry of queer Britain,” presenting it as the central development in the source material available for this brief.

The available account reports that he has shot everyone from Madonna to Rihanna, Kate Moss and Frank Ocean. The report also notes that Now Walker has turned his lens on the activists, artists, writers, models and everyday heroes of gay life Six years ago, Tim Walker was walking in the Highbury Fields area of London when he came across a plaque on the side of a building. In 1970, at these now-converted public toilets, Louis Eakes, chairman of the Young Liberals , was arrested for importuning following a “pretty police” entrapment in which male officers posed as would-be sex partners. It was here, the plaque told the photographer, that the first ever gay rights demonstration in Britain had taken place, organised by the Gay Liberation Front, in protest at Eakes’s arrest. But Walker was jolted by the date: 27 November 1970. It was the day he was born. So he wondered: “Who were those people out marching that day? Where are they now?”
