Award-winning photographer and artist Lottie Davies is known for her wide-ranging travel and editorial photography, and her highly-produced set-piece fine art work. Born in Guildford in 1971, she studied philosophy at St Andrews in Scotland before making London her base in 1996. Both her journalistic and personal work are informed by her background in philosophy and theatre, and are concerned with the tales and myths we use to structure our lives: memories, life-stories, beliefs. She takes inspiration from classical and modern painting, cinema and theatre as well as the imaginary worlds of literature. She employs a deliberate reworking of our visual vocabulary, playing on our notions of nostalgia, visual conventions and subconscious ‘looking habits’, with the intention of evoking a sense of narrative and movement. Sandy Nairne, director of the National Portrait Gallery in London, has described Davies’ work as “brilliantly imaginative”.
