Dreams have always been a great source of inspiration in my work and the symbolism they invoke. They can be considered a window into the subconscious mind. The symbolism within dreams can be powerful in revealing a lot about our inner thoughts, hidden desires and emotions but only if we pay attention to them. Through interpreting our dreams there is a lot to be learnt about our inner psyche. This image is a portrait of my friend Livy, a Dream worker confronting the multiple versions of herself within a dream.

Laura Antonia Abbott is a British Fine Art and Conceptual Photographer whose lived experiences across five continents shapes a practice where creativity and intuitive healing meet. Influenced by photographers such as Guy Bourdin, Tim Walker, and Anna Gaskell, and guided by her work as an Usui Reiki Master, Laura crafts surrealist dreamscapes that bridge boundaries between inner worlds and lived reality. Her imagery drifts through themes of female identity, psychological landscapes, and our fragile communion with the natural world.
