Photographs from Danny Treacy's Them series.
'They are us and they are Them. They are the work of Danny Treacy. They are the figments of his imagination and desire. They are made from recovered clothes, collected from those lonely places - the woods, the wasteland, the car-parks. They are re-stitched and re-fashioned: re-modelled into junk monsters. They are nightmares of the catwalk, prowling around the outskirts of style's dumb extravagance.
They belonged to the unknown, the anonymous, the lost, the drunken, the deranged, the sexually driven, and who knows, the dead. They are the sinister carnival playing in the street. They are the music we dread to hear. They confront us. They defy us. They take a chance in our presence. They take a chance on existence. They are Danny Treacy dressed-up.'
