This was a very impressive show….Morat…..a man of many talents gave us “civilians” a deep look into his career through photography. Just don’t call him an “artist”. I seriously was amazed at his work with the bands and his wife!
A little about Morat….
“Morat is a splendid person and his hair stands up most of the time. The work is brilliant, marvelous, especially when he writes about us. I’ve never read anything that he wrote about anyone else, I only read the bits he writes about us, but they were very good, so thank you Morat.”
- Lemmy Kilmister
Having written for Kerrang! magazine since 1989, I started shooting for them, pretty much by accident, in the early 90’s when all their photographers refused to go on tour with my favourite punk band Poison Idea. With pretentions of being as good as Mark Leialoha and taller than Ross Halfin, I shot everyone from Ozzy Osbourne, Slayer and Slipknot to The Prodigy and was published all around the world (full-ish list in the ‘published in’ section) before stumbling into fetish and pin up photography in 2006 when I married Masuimi Max. I still have no idea how to do photoshop.
