ABOUT

ELISA MILLER, AWARD-WINNING FRENCH PHOTOGRAPHER BASED IN LONDON, UK.

“Elisa Miller is an award-winning French photographer based in London whose work merges vintage aesthetics with vibrant colour and cinematic sensibility. Through carefully constructed sets and nuanced light manipulation, she crafts visual narratives that delve into the complexities of the female psyche. Her images explore identity, self-perception and the portrayal of women in contemporary visual culture. By drawing attention to the tension between appearance and reality, Miller reveals the hidden layers beneath societal expectations, offering a rich, emotionally resonant commentary on how women are seen – and how they see themselves.”
– Aesthetica Art Prize, 2025
