For almost ten years artist Rachael Clegg has made motorsport the subject of her cult collectible photographs. Her images, published as calendars and as collectible art prints, have celebrated some of motorsports best and least known stories, specifically around the Isle of Man TT course and the infamous Nürburgring circuit in Germany. Her images illustrate events throughout the TT’s 114-year history and the N’ring’s 94-year history. Every single prop, every pose and every location is specifically related to an historical event. This year’s edition digs a bit deeper into the riders and manufacturers back stories in addition to non-motorsports subjects including space travel and satellites. All done in her witty, silly, and very evocative style.
