Renegades is Marshall’s first and so far only photographic solo exhibition which immediately earned him national and international attention.
In 2008 Marshall was hired to accompany and shoot a South African heavy metal band at a performance in Botswana's capital Gaborone where he first came in touch with the local heavy metal subculture.
In 2009 he decided to make these people the subject of his final year thesis at Tshwane University and finished the series in 2010.
It consists of 60 posed environmental portraits and is meant to represent and transmit ideologies of heavy metal subculture in Botswana.
The portraits are shot with two analogue cameras, a Hasselblad 500 CM and a Hasselblad 500 EL/M on Fujichrome Provia 100F film.
