Homage to chicks is an edit of photographs taken from 1990 to 2012, reimagined into a new artwork; a singular narrative of 126 photographs highlighting women in the music industry.
Throughout is a message of reverence for these women, placing them at the centre of the story.
This series is an excerpt of Howarth’s currently touring solo exhibition Behind the Lens, an anthology of individual stories that celebrate culture, land and profound experiences.
Spanning decades, Sophie Howarth’s prolific photography career has guided her from sweaty mosh-pits to the pages of Rolling Stone, working for globally renowned advertising campaigns and travelling the world.
Her self-published book Peace, Love and Brown Rice: A Photographic History of the Big Day Out has sold over 8000 copies.
Sophie’s lens is guided by her intuitive risk-taking and her search for authenticity.
