Otherworlds

As a New Zealander - born and raised in open spaces; I made the move to Dresden, Germany in 2016. Living in a populated cityscape, I subconsciously returned to nature, finding familiar places in the outdoors that felt like home. This became my first series, 'Otherworlds.'

A mixture of collaborative team work and my own handmade elements, each image was created around the idea of a character in their own world, somewhere on the border of our own. These are the other worlds, in between places - where the realities of normal life can be put on hold for a moment. It was shot in several different countries, including Germany, Czechia and New Zealand and in each country a familiar space in nature awaited - free from culture, language and architecture.

Otherworlds invites the viewer to leave behind their daily life and cross over for a moment, into nature and another reality.
