S·he - On Opening

S·he was shown publicly for the first time in November 2025 at Brodziak Gallery.

Until then, the work had existed only in the studio. This was the first time the three figures were presented together and seen at their intended scale.

The gallery later wrote in its newsletter:

“What we saw went beyond the boundaries of photography. The three chapters of the S·he project were exceptionally mature, moving, and magical. One of the project’s protagonists was Heather Stewart-Whyte, an icon of the world’s runways and muse to the greatest fashion houses, who honoured us with her presence at the opening. Her emotion spoke louder than words.”

Heather Stewart-Whyte attended the opening as one of the figures within the project.

Some of the responses recorded that evening were brief:

“A completely different level of experience.”
“Another universe. The process is its own artwork.”
“Highest possible level.”

What follows below is a short visual record from the opening. It shows the work as it was installed and encountered that night.

For the project, this marked the point at which it moved from studio work into public circulation.
