Mystical Photographs of Illuminated Forests in the United Kingdom. The London-based abstract photographer Ellie Davies fascinates us with surreal portraits of forests that glow magnificently with mystical fairy lights and ominous waves of mist. He creates enchanting shots in natural areas throughout the United Kingdom.
Therefore, with the woods as her canvas, fireflies appear to brighten desolate clearings, and cascading showers of stars dust intensely lit patches of trees. Ellie Davies makes the pensive illusions by combining photographs of the natural world with pictures captured by the Hubble Space Telescope.
She says I like to explore images that juxtapose human and natural elements, calling devotion to the sharp divide between personal identity and Inter-connectivity. Though, she does this by positioning out-of-place elements within the context of her landscapes.
The majestic forests are potent symbols in folklore, fairy tale and myth, places of enchantment and magic as well as of danger and mystery. In more recent history they have come to be associated with psychological states relating to the unconscious.
Therefore against this backdrop, my hard work explores the ways in which identity is formed by the landscapes we live and grow up in.
