I’m familiar with fashion trends spreading like wildfire: the military jacket, the skinny jean, the gladiator style sandal. But every now and again, it’s a brand or label that becomes more fashionable than the clothes it produces. Right now, it seems the city trendies have all been making the pilgrimage to American Apparel and bringing out the cash much faster than it takes most of us to wriggle into a pair of skin-tight lamé leggings. I find myself walking down the street having a serious bout of déjà-vu as the same highly identifiable clothing passes me by, and I’m left wondering ‘Who sent the memo?’

FAUX-REAL by Mel McVeigh is a photographic exploration of society and the media's obsession with fame and the unobtainable un-realness of this constructed ideal. The industry of fame holds out these people to us through media and advertising channels as the arbitrators of style, fashion, taste and success - for us to wantonly consume as we strive to take a piece of that dream back into our own normal lives. Fame captivates and allures us, yet the lives of the famous are as equally disposable as they are extraordinary.
