Mikael Aldo’s haunting photography

Capturing humans' relationship with the natural world

Posted by

Indonesian photographer Mikael Aldo explores the beautiful relationship between nature and humankind in his photo series Oneiric Portraits. People are at the centre of these images, at times standing out among the stark landscapes and in others becoming almost translucent. The ethereal photographs capture human interaction with nature, in some the subject blends completely into their surroundings, camouflaging, and becoming one with the scenery. The other-worldly, ghostly portraits show a deep appreciation for the natural world. The misty backdrop evokes a wistful, foreboding feeling and the breathtaking environment looks both alluring as it does unnerving. Have a look at the portraits above.
