Written By Janie hao

Based in Ontario, Elmira Persaud is a still life photographer who produces vibrant and surreal imagery and motion work. Using subtle narratives, lensing, and detailed layering, she constructs various environments with emotive qualities. Inspired by other art forms, like painting and music, this work is part of a larger series that explores how objects and natural elements, when lit in a certain manner, can create an immersive and evocative space.
