A Realm Beyond
2025
Photography, light & digital image editing
Concept, photography & artistic direction by Igrien
A Realm Beyond explores the space between the photographed and the imagined.
Through light, photography and digital image editing, familiar forms are transformed into atmospheric, constructed worlds that sit somewhere between reality and abstraction. Rather than documenting what is in front of the camera, the work uses photography as raw material for creating an image that could not fully exist outside it.
The series marks a shift towards a more constructed visual practice, where the photograph becomes a starting point for building new realities rather than an endpoint in itself.
