The Historical Fiction series reimagines iconic periods through a modern lens, creating scenes that feel both familiar and entirely new. Each image is built with the detail and scale of a film set, from costuming to atmosphere, to create moments that look as if they were pulled from an alternate timeline. The series blends nostalgia with invention, pairing period references with Shields’ bold visual style to create photographs that feel timeless, dramatic, and rooted in story.

His work explores themes of power, hyper-realism, and gaze, and often incorporates violence and danger. Shields' photographs are evocative and glamorous, blurring the lines between reality and imagination. He transforms celebrities into icons of strength and emotion, and his work critiques the superficiality of consumerism and wealth.
