Life and work
Hido was born August 25, 1968, in Kent, Ohio, and graduated from Theodore Roosevelt High School in 1986.[5] He graduated in 1991 with a B.F.A. from Tufts University,[6] in Medford, Massachusetts and School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. Between 1991 and 1992 he studied at Rhode Island School of Design, Providence, Rhode Island.[7] In 1996 he gained an M.F.A. from California College of Arts and Crafts, Oakland, California.[8]
Currently based in San Francisco, much of Hido's earlier work involves photographs of urban and suburban housing[9] across the U.S.. He then started to include figures, mostly female nudes in interiors, and also to depict rural landscapes. In 2018, he released Bright Black World, his first work photographed outside the U.S. with environmental overtones.
Hido says he is influenced by Alfred Hitchcock, Edward Hopper, Stephen Shore, Robert Adams, Walker Evans, Nan Goldin, Emmet Gowin, Larry Sultan, Alfred Stieglitz, Andreas Gursky and Rineke Dijkstra. Commissioned by Italian brand Bottega Veneta, he photographed actress Lauren Hutton as well as models Joan Smalls and Vittoria Ceretti for the brand's spring/summer 2017 advertisements.[10]
