She finds her models among her friends, family, on the street or on Instagram. The center of Nadine Ijewere's work is the imperfection of humans and the resulting beauty. The flawlessness of traditional fashion photography, the staged beauty of models and the beauty norms the represent are countered by the stories of human charme and beauty told by Ijewere's art. Her work is already a necessary corrective in fashion photograhy. She has pushed forward the discourse of expanding the visual world of fashion photography and embrace the multiplicity of voices and experiences of a diverse global public in order to transcend fixed ideas of how beauty should look.

Beautiful Disruption, Nadine Ijewere's first solo exhibition can be seen until September 2 at C/O Berlin, daily from 11:00 - 18:00.
