CHARLI SAVAGE
For as long as I can remember, I’ve had a love affair with the written word, and it’s this everlasting love of storytelling that ignites my passion for creating visual stories. Add to the mix my unending curiosity to traverse the unknown, take the path less traveled, see remote and otherworldly places, and my imagination runs wild. My work explores my own grandiose
My Magical World, And The Battle With Everyday Reality.
ideas of an adventurous life, following my curiosity for all things strange and magical and my battles with the realities of everyday life.
I purchased my first camera in June 2018 and put myself straight into manual mode. Next, I taught myself to use the camera, and in September 2018, I discovered the world of conceptual fine art photography and immediately started teaching myself Photoshop. I haven’t looked back since.
I’m now primarily a self-portrait photographer; however, I enjoy photographing other people as well. All my images are shot on location. My location choices are anywhere with negative space, usually farmland, crop fields, parks, beaches, or small inlets, and occasionally, I’ll also use a plain white wall as my background. I like to create a set as closely as possible because I feel like I get to be part of the world, usually reserved just for my imagination. I spend countless hours wandering through op-shops antique stores, Facebook Marketplace, etc., to find props and timeless clothing.
