In this evocative feature for Dazed Magazine, musician 2hollis is captured through a lens that perfectly balances the raw energy of his internet-born persona with the polished precision of high fashion. Photographed by Thue Nørgaard, the series leans into editorial minimalism, utilizing a neutral, muted grey studio backdrop that allows the artist’s fluid aesthetic to take center stage. Nørgaard masterfully toggles between soft natural light and clean studio strobe setups, creating a visual duality that mirrors the artist's own evolution. Fashion editor and stylist Ellie Grace Cumming curates a wardrobe that ranges from distressed fringe and Rick Owens platform boots to delicate lace and military-inspired tailoring, emphasizing a non-binary, experimental silhouette. The artistic impact is further deepened by hair stylist Kim Rance, whose work frames the face in soft, wavy platinum blonde layers, while makeup artist Niamh Quinn introduces subtle iridescent glitter and muted shadows, adding a tactile, shimmering texture to the portraits. Interspersed with typography-heavy magazine layouts, the project reads as both a modern music portrait and an exploration of digital-age identity. By grounding 2hollis in both industrial urban settings and clinical studio spaces, the editorial achieves a cinematic quality that defines the current zeitgeist of independent media, offering a contemplative look at a figure who identifies as a child of the internet.
