The traditional depiction of an English garden is often one of structured flower beds, quaint pathways, and perfectly trimmed hedges. But British photographer Siân Davey wanted to make something different. “I’m keen to avoid creating a saccharine and nostalgic picture,” she said of “The Garden,” her new portrait series. “It’s not that at all.

An antidote to loneliness A focus on human stories runs through Davey’s work. Her 2015 book “Looking for Alice” chronicled the early years of her daughter born with Down’s syndrome, and her second book “Martha”, published in 2018, follows another of her four children. For Davey and her son, the project was as much about intention and process as it was about making the photographs.
