AN OPEN LETTER TO GEORGE KOH (Pt3) I believe my love for Harry has been made clear over the years. And it will continue. I have committed myself to sharing Harry’s work on the 11th of each month for as long as I’m on social media. He will forever be a part of my soul. But so will you, George. I want you to know, brother, that I’ve also quietly committed myself to praying that you chose your next path wisely. The choices presented to you will be largely negative and difficult, but there will also be positive, albeit uphill, paths that present themselves to you. I pray your costly decisions of Jan 11th will be your low point; the worst decisions you ever make. I also pray that you will weigh every decision from here on out wisely and choose the path that will raise you up and allow you to positively impact humanity as you were born and equipped to do by the Universe. “Onward and Upward” is a catchphrase I use a lot, but for you, it is a must. You must move onward and you must move upward. It's vital to you and to all of us. I pray this for you, brother. “God has shown us what is good and what He requires of us: to do what’s right, to love kindness and to be humble as we learn to interact with Him on the daily.” (paraphrase of Micah 6:8) Whatever the path, please heal well, my brother.

AN OPEN LETTER TO GEORGE KOH (pt 2) When I first discussed this portrait with you 2 years ago, I told you that I selected you as the model because you had this unique ability to express several different emotions simultaneously. I stand by that and even though it now cuts me to the core to look at this image, I think it is still unmistakably powerful. The mix of emotions in your face is palpable: Anger, hurt, regret, sadness, confusion, no-fucks-given… they are all there on your face…and there is a Truth at work. This is a gift that can’t be taught. This is the gift you had, brother. It is one of the main things that made it hard for viewers to take their eyes off you. The irony of this 2016 image (and the title “fallen brother”) isn’t lost on me. In fact, the irony has burned itself into my soul and will remain with me till I die. Real talk. But when I look closely, I still see your gifts at work in the portrait. (and I like to think a glimpse of your heart) Listen brother —- That ability remains. I doubt your path will ever lead back into the modeling industry but you still have a God-given ability, a face that tells stories… a sea of emotions that can have an affect on viewers. You’ll have to figure out what to do with that gift now. But in the same way, I know without a doubt that your soul can do the same. You can hold multiple things in your soul too. And those multiple stories will be evident to those you come in contact with. You can live with the scars of guilt of your impulsive actions, with the scorn of all those who feel wronged by you, with the difficult circumstances your sentence will present you with, AND simultaneously hold the healing kind of self-love and love and concern for others that are the brighter (and far more powerful) parts of your soul. You can’t undo what you’ve done, brother, but I know you have the ability to live with it at the same time you’re nurturing the powerfully positive things that were placed in you at birth. The negative will never fully disappear but you MUST let the positive grow and flourish, regardless of your circumstances. We need your gifts, your face, your stories.

Louis Vuitton model found guilty of murdering Nigerian rival Harry Uzoka

Harry Uzoka, a 25 year old Louis Vuitton model, suffered an untimely death at the hands of his fellow model, George Koh. His killer has been convicted of the murder and is now facing a life sentence for stabbing Harry Uzoka in the heart during a dispute.

British catwalker George Koh, 24, had become increasingly obsessed with more successful English model Harry Uzoka and is accused of trying to copy the look of the top industry rival.

Harry Uzoka The pair engaged in online quarrels through social media in the months leading up to Uzoka's murder in January. Koh is said to have been envious of Uzoka's style to the point of trying to schmooze his friends. Their rivalry peaked when Koh started claiming he had slept with Uzoka's model girlfriend, Ruby Campbell.

Harry Uzoka & girlfriend Ruby Campbell Uzoka had addressed Koh in a direct message: "Leave my name out of your mouth, it’s that simple. I’ve never spoken bad of you in any way, so this is wild." Then came the fateful day Uzoka was killed, 11th January, 2018. Uzoka, who was referred to as “Britain’s most famous black model,’’ working for such brands as Mercedes and Zara at Koh's trial— agreed to meet Koh outside his London home. Both men brought back up as well as weapons. Uzoka carried a dumbbell, while Koh had a knife in each of his hands. The scuffle — some of which was caught on video — ended with Koh stabbing his rival through the heart, prosecutors said. Koh however claimed that Uzoka punched him and then fell on top of one of the knives, effectively stabbing himself. Uzoka died on the sidewalk in front of his home. Koh now faces life behind bars when sentenced on 21 September, the Mirror reports. Press play to watch fight between Harry Uzoka & George Koh: Read the full article

No words about this Inauguration Day… just 9 years of portraits of our American brothers. The TuTchT American Swag Series. Piece No. 21 “Fallen Brother” (2016) It was model George Koh’s unique ability to express several emotions at once and his combination of simultaneously boylike and manlike qualities that drew me to him for my most recent Desert Sentinels portrait. The result is deeply effective to me. @georgekoh1 #TuTchT #TuTchTImaging #ThruTuTchTEyes #AmericanSwag #InaugaurationDay #TuTchTAmericanSwag #TuTchTModelPortraits #TuTchTPortraitSeries #GeorgeKoh #FallenBrother #MemorialDay #YoungBlackSoldiers #KilledinAction #BlackLivesMatter #GoneButNotForgotten #ContemplatingtheSacrifice #Glory
