"Indulgence" is Tyler Shields’ exploration of society's insatiable appetite for opulence and luxury. At the core of this captivating collection is the contemporary fixation on the extravagant, spotlighting society’s relentless pursuit of the finer things in life. Luxury brands such as Chanel and Hermes take center stage, and Shields takes them beyond the conventional pairing them with everyday objects, creating a visual tapestry that blurs the boundaries between the ordinary and extraordinary.
A standout moment of Indulgence is Shields' daring Gator Birkin shots. In a display of audacious creativity, he places models mere inches away from live alligators, capturing the tension between beauty and danger, desire and risk. This commitment to live creations within his photographs adds a visceral dimension to the series, pushing the boundaries of artistry and challenging viewers to confront the juxtaposition of luxury and peril.
