An ancient stone tower in Ireland is seen loming up from the base. A bird circles around the tower.

Breathing Stories | The Tower

When a journey inspires images, and images inspire words, together they distil the essence of faerie tale and myth.

This collaboration between
Kate Baker and Phoebe Rose Lines was recently exhibited as part of the
2025 Ballarat International Foto Biennale

Why

Meaningful art enriches our lives. For me, photography is an alchemical journey of connection. When I feel connected, there is a sense of timelessness, of sense of being both anonymous and a part of everything at the same time. While today's society can seem fragmented, this is a way of connecting into that which is within us and that which is far greater than us. I'm seeking the essence of things. I want to make work that helps you feel something that enriches your life.

I collected your beautiful print Toward the Light yesterday....What great, deep pleasure it is giving me...and my husband. Whenever I look at it, my heart soars, much like the Nijinsky figure. The richness of the image is compelling on so many levels - aesthetically, technically, spiritually. So thank you.

The Marshes (inspired by Lord Dunsanay’s The Kith of the Elf Folk) – I loved this picture so much I ordered the book of the story to dive into the image even deeper. Kate you have captured the wonder of the transformative power of myth so beautifully

I love Kate Baker's photographs because they are like a portal into another realm. Each one is drawing me in ... and I am tugged down some path of mystery or tale. It is a storyteller's world. It's magic.
