Wings & Wisteria: Where the 1920s Met the Fae

Wings & Wisteria: Where the 1920s Met the Fae

Some collections arrive fully formed. This one arrived in pieces, a golden afternoon light on a fence post, a fascination with the restless glamour of the 1920s, and a lifelong belief that the fae are closer than we think.

I live in the green hills of Northern New South Wales, where the light at dusk does something extraordinary. It turns the ordinary, a weathered post, a winding country lane, a creek catching the last of the sun into something that feels like it belongs to another world. I've been photographing these landscapes for years, and somewhere along the way, the fae moved in.

Two Great Loves

The 1920s have always captivated me. It was a decade of contradiction glamour and grief, freedom and fragility, old worlds ending and new ones not yet named. The fae, too, exist in that in-between space. They are ancient and timeless, but they have always known how to dress for the occasion.

When I began imagining what it might look like if the fae had lived through the roaring twenties — perched on their posts, watching the motorcars go by, holding court on silent film sets — the Wings & Wisteria collection was born.

The Five Fae

Each piece in this collection begins with a real place. A real post. Real grass catching real light. I photograph the landscape, and then I ask: who would sit here? What would she be wearing? What is she watching?

  • The Fae Photographer arrived before the light did, bellows camera in hand, documenting the world between worlds.
  • Daydreaming is barefoot and unhurried — she simply knows something you don't.
  • Motoring has seen every era come and go. She's not waiting. She's watching.
  • Fae with Parasol holds herself apart from the Edwardian picnic behind her — curious, composed, entirely herself.
  • Silent Screen Star has always known how to hold a room. The cameras are rolling, and she is luminous.

The Bundle

All five are now available together as the Wings & Wisteria: A 1920s Fae Collection — five A3 digital art prints, delivered instantly. Print them together as a series, or let each one find its own wall.

This work is created and curated by me, combining original photography from the Northern NSW countryside with AI-assisted digital art. Each piece is made with care, and a genuine love of the world it comes from.

I hope they bring a little of that golden-hour magic into your home.
