World-renowned photographer Rankin captures heritage craftspeople
9th November 2018 | OUR STORIES
As part of our link-up with AirBnB Experiences, world renowned photographer Rankin has captured craftspeople featured on the HCA Red List of Endangered Crafts. Best known for his portraits of models such as Kate Moss and personalities such as David Bowie and the Queen, Rankin has this to say about the craftspeople he visited:
There’s so many craft-based skills which take years to properly hone and develop that are in danger of dying out. We must not let this happen. Shooting with Greg, JoJo and Lucy I got a unique insight into their work and why we should fight to keep crafts like these alive.
