Thank you so much @house_collective_ & @johnpaul_thesirensoftitan for the wonderful write up about what we are doing @creativeseva
Full interview in bio 😊
#CollectiveCulture | Jam Patel
The formidable creative force tells Collective Culture how a childhood passion for magazines turned into a lifelong career in image-making and explains why true beauty exists in the exaltation of the human spirit.
Jam Patel @jampatel is an award-winning fashion film director, on the verge of finishing her first feature-length script, and a photographer who is known to practically everyone in the environs of style culture. Not only is she hugely respected for the vibrant, colour-soaked aesthetic of her own output in stills, which have graced the likes of Vogue, Flair and Tatler (drawing the likes of Louis Vuitton and Givenchy to count themselves among her extensive commercial client list), but also for her matchless curation of the photographic image, not least as a photo editor for Dazed & Confused, where she cut her teeth in the early noughties.
Her reputation for boundless enthusiasm and energy went into overdrive during the pandemic when she founded the charity Creative Seva @creativeseva , which raised tens of thousands of pounds for Covid-19 relief in India via Instagram – selling donated imagery by some of the world's most illustrious image-makers.
