Duncan Paylor - Flower Beard
October 2022

Duncan is an interesting character - he turned 40 and decided that he would become a kind of ‘yes’ man? Doing men’s mental health ice cold swimming in the sea, and winning singing contests on the television. So I put out a casting call looking for someone with a beard - and he was the first to volunteer! It was October so there wasn’t many flowers around but I did manage to find some small ones, and my sister managed to use eyelash glue to stick them to his beard. I’m not sure why I wanted to do this shoot, I just had a kind of creative calling? Hard to explain.
