Deborah Pelser, Junkyard Angel (SINGLE SHOT 2025)

The photograph captures Amy Taylor of Amyl and the Sniffers in a moment of raw, electric energy. Her face is turned sharply to the right, obscured from view, lending the image a sense of mystery and movement. Her platinum-blonde hair explodes with volume, styled in a way that echoes the iconic glamour of Marilyn Monroe, yet recontextualised through a punk lens. She wears a handmade top adorned with matchbox cars—each one sewn directly onto the fabric—creating a striking contrast between childhood nostalgia and fierce DIY rebellion. The image is a vivid collision of attitude, era, and art, embodying the chaotic charisma that defines both Amy and her band.
