About the Item
Looking for Me - Words from Konichiwa by Skepta. De Beauvoir Estate, London, 2017 is a 16" x 20" C-Type Print from a Limited Edition of 25 by Samuel Hicks.
Apartment blocks on an estate in London leap into the dusky blue evening sky. On the roof of the lowest block we read the words, "Lookin for me".
In this series by London-based photographer Samuel Hicks, the words and lyrics of popular and sometimes evocative songs are set into the urban landscape in neon light.
In this composition, Looking for Me, Hicks matches the location to the content of the lyrics. A vast urban estate sprawls out in the soft twilight sky, and a scattering of lights are switched on in homes, lending small pops of glow to the otherwise dusky landscape.
Abstracted from the original context of the complete lyrics and song, the words presented to the viewer appear with multiple meanings. Are you looking for me? Or perhaps a more introspective, I am looking for me, echoing the feeling of isolation and lost-ness that hits unexpectedly.
Available as a 48" x 40" print from a limited edition of 10.

Samuel Hicks
English photographer Samuel Hicks combines a commercial and editorial approach to constructing images. During Hicks’ foundation course at university, he was intrigued by the photography department and subsequently decided to apply for a BA in Photography. During his BA degree, Hicks got work experience with commercial photographers in London, and his eyes were opened to the world of commercial photography. He was so enthralled that he left the BA one year early, and found work as a photography assistant, working mainly with “people and cars”. These years were spent, among other things, travelling around the world and shooting personal work, which led to him joining an agency. Now an independent creative photographer, Hicks shoots commercial and personal projects. Hicks’ creative process always starts with inspiration, from musicians and designers, to other photographers. His aim is always to find great beauty where other people don’t.
