Miss Aniela’s 'Surreal Fashion' evokes both couture photography
and art history in detailed compositions staged in stately houses
across England, France and the US, dramatically digitally
processed to evoke an artistic allusion to Baroque masters,
English landscape painting and Rococo Revival. Calling on
elemental and animalistic motifs of water, wings, goddesses and
mythical creatures of half man and half beast, the images can be
perceived as a contemporary commentary on art history
challenging our notion of boundaries between art and fashion.
The resultant images represent hundreds of hours of
preparation, physical in-situ installation, and post-production in
a meticulously diligent fusion of location, model and digital
element.
