ABOUT
Amber Pinkerton (b.1997) is a London-based, photographic and moving image artist born and raised in Kingston, Jamaica.
Her works, which range from fashion to art photography, are inspired by Caribbean culture, social commentary and socio-political context.
Her images have documented the beauty of life, specifically in Jamaica, with a rich definition of colour. Amber has been featured in The New York Times Style Magazine's list of '15 Creative Women for Our Time' and in the 2020 British Fashion Council's New Wave: Creatives List. She was listed in the Dazed 100 rankings (2020) as well as i-D's ‘Photographers to follow in 2020’ and ‘My Year in Photos’.
