The Every and the Epic exhibition will display selected works by students who undertook a fashion photography project responding to the theme, ‘the everyday and the epic’ – notions of which are pertinent to photography and fashion, both as independent and combined disciplines.

As photography and fashion are cultural mediators of both banality and profundity, they undoubtedly shape life in ordinary and superb ways, and present spectacles from the common through to the awe-inspiring.

The works that are being exhibited will demonstrate how fashion photography can take images of the ordinary or authentic, and juxtapose them with flights of fancy or propositions of something new.

The Everday and the Epic follows on from an exhibition, which took place in London last summer and features some of the same work. It opens on 19 October and runs until 7 November, at Music Café After Eight in Finland.
