"I always felt that, to be a skater, you needed to have a faulty wire somewhere," says photographer @ed.templeton 🛹⁠

He leapt into the life of picture-making in 1994, following his encounters with Larry Clark’s Teenage Lust (1983) and Nan Goldin’s The Ballad of Sexual Dependency (1986). “Those books really hit me,” he tells Dazed in a conversation over the phone. “I used to always think you had to go somewhere exotic and shoot a war to be a photographer. Once I realised that you could document your own world, I began hoovering everything up with my camera.”⁠

For Templeton, #skating and photographing came hand in hand. He was doing what he loved, and he did it compulsively. It’s no surprise, then, that his new three-decades-in-the-making photo book, Wires Crossed, is a huge and unruly object. It chronicles the thrills and spills of the skateboarding subculture between the 1990s and early 2000s through the lens of a participant-observer – at once “one of them” and a pioneer. ⁠

From masterminding the cult brand Toy Machine to wrecking a string of world championships and beyond, Templeton has become a legend in the annals of skateboarding history. His book might be as powerful a record of skate life – its wayward youth and lust for the road – as has ever been made.⁠
