Sometimes, it feels like we are in a futuristic cyberpunk movie from the 90s. Ai's presence looms and humanity flounders disconnected, and as devisive ideologies splinter us and the news feels alienating and dark.
This shoot was inspired by the idea of peacefully floating through space as if in a dream lit by the neon lights and glow of the ever-present cityscape. As we question where we are going and why we are here we crave inner peace and connection the same as so many generations have done before us. It is different times, but our humanity is the same.
Hestia is the keeper of the inner flame. This archetype focuses on radical inwardness and spiritual grounding. Her "dark" aspect is her quiet withdrawal from societal demands and the noise of achievement to tend to her own inner space.
Among the chaos in the world, she lets herself float into a dreamy inner creative world much like a dancer focusses on perfecting her craft which is a welcome peace from the tensions of the outer world.
Thank you to the incredible Wings for letting me photograph you. You are inspirational as ever.
