"Elena Kalis is good at using light, color and space to capture the most beautiful images, and his works reveal the exquisite quality and light effect like a fairy tale, touching not only the visual splendor, but also the inner possibility of the beauty of the image.

Elena is good at making use of the characteristics of water. In this time and space, which is temporarily separated from gravity, Elena creates a lot of fantastic and colorful dream styles. Together with the model girls in the works, she creates a beautiful fairy tale imagination in the dream. Compared with the colorful fairy tale colors, Elena has a sharp grasp of light, so his black and white photography works also have an alternative black fairy tale aesthetic. Elena also seems to be particularly fond of using natural materials as props or backgrounds, especially elements related to the ocean, such as shells, fish, crabs... And so on. It's all over his video work. (Excerpt from "The Beautiful Underwater Photography Fairy Tale -Elena Kalis")
