Based in the Kent suburbs, Jeanie Jean photographs the intersections of punk, goth, 80s revival, pinup, and skinhead culture, working with a clear documentary sensibility. Her ongoing series Slimelight centres on the longest-running dark-scene club in the world — a fixture that remains both recognised and respected within alternative culture.

Founded in 1987 by Dette Marsh and Mayuan Mak, the club has operated from its current home, The Electrowerkz, since October of that year. It began as a members-only night with a single dance floor offering what was billed as “the only alternative” — a blend of goth, post-punk, industrial, new wave, indie, alternative electronic, and crossover 80s music. As the dark scene shifted, the club evolved with it, expanding across multiple spaces and hosting live performances that have become part of its identity.
