Elliot Dennison is a photographer, filmmaker and creative director based in London. His work predominatly focuses on merging spirituality and horror into one form. His style stems from his belief that there is an intersection of reality and fantasy that we encounter momentarily in our daily lives. He strives to recapture this crossover within his work.
Drawing inspiration from his Buddhist upbringing, he weaves in spirtual concepts of liberation, redemption and purity and contrats them against horror visuals of vacant liminal spaces, blood and ghosts.
Elliot is also a street photographer and photojournalist, He is fascinated with capturing religious occurrences in our everyday lives and the evolution of subcultures - the relationship between music and fashion.
