Method Man turns his eyeball inside out: Eddie Otchere’s best photograph
‘I was on a scrubby bit of land with Wu-Tang Clan when Method Man said, “Let me show you a trick.” And he put his cap strap over his eye, pulled it back and made the face’
TL;DR
- Eddie Otchere started photography at 15 and was inspired to photograph Wu-Tang Clan in 1994.
- He joined the group on their coach, documenting their journey from London to Kentish Town Forum.
- Key moments included Method Man showing a trick with his cap strap and Masta Killa and Ghostface Killah acting like comic-book characters.
- Otchere's goal was to photograph all nine Wu-Tang Clan members, a mission he completed over ten years.
- He views his work as documentary, capturing a movement and its personalities rather than trying to create iconic portraits.
