American photographer Tyler Mitchell is driven by dreams of paradise set against the backdrop of history. Since rising to prominence in the fashion world, he has built a visual narrative of beauty, style, utopia, and landscape that expands visions of the Black experience.
Photo Elysée presents his first solo exhibition in Switzerland, offering new perspectives on his signature themes such as self-determination and the extraordinary brilliance of everyday life, while showing how photography can be rooted in the past yet evoke hypothetical futures. Titled Wish This Was Real, the exhibition spans Mitchell’s entire body of work — from his early portraits and videos to landscapes that revel in idyllic visions, contrasted by the complexity of American history and social identity.
