As founder of the Women and Supreme modeling agencies, Paul Rowland has consistently pushed for new definitions of female beauty. His photography work similarly revels in the unconventional, featuring, in turn, gorgeous supermodels from his twin agencies and visions of death, darkness, and animal sacrifice. This month, Rowland, who trained as an artist before launching the careers of girls like Kate Moss, opens a new series of works titled “The Transformation of Enrique Miron as El Diablo.” The photographs feature male model Miron in a narrative of Satan’s life, from angel, to fallen angel, to dark lord of the underworld. “Satan is a subject that’s compelling to everyone,” Rowland says. “He’s in everyone’s psyche, and no one wants to address him.” Highly visceral and at times even shocking, the resulting imagery is a portal to the inner world of one of fashion’s most intriguing players. “I try to be honest about what I feel,” Rowland explains. “I try to find what’s inside me, and this is what comes out.”
