The pair met in the late 1980s and collaborated for over 13 years at the historic private estate and recording studio. Parke and Prince formed a strong professional bond, often working through the night to realise new experimental projects. Their close relationship provided Parke with a unique insight into Prince’s character, resulting in an archive of over 500 rare and intimate photographs which explore Prince’s persona on-and-off the stage. Parke recently published his book ‘Picturing Prince: Photographs by Steve Parke’, featuring his favourite shots alongside anecdotes and memorable stories. The content combines to create an intimate portrait that captures Prince’s multifaceted mystique.
