A remarkable compendium of diverse and evocative imagery exploring the wide-ranging and profound associations of the five natural elements, masterfully curated by image alchemist and cult social media figure Stephen Ellcock. Elements is an eclectic, evocative and resoundingly beautiful treasury of imagery exploring depictions of the elemental forces that reveal their profound significance to ancient philosophers, alchemists and astrologers, and modern artists, photographers and scientists alike. Expertly curated, themed and paired by image alchemist Stephen Ellcock, modern and visionary images are juxtaposed with the ancient and arcane; the creative power of the elements is contrasted with the disastrous; and the connections of the elements with the seasons, the humours, the signs of the zodiac and parts of the body are revealed. Following physician and occultist Robert Fludd's (1574-1637) presentation of the order of the elements, Ellcock guides readers through a remarkable selection of images, ascending from earth, through water, air and fire before culminating in the most spiritual of the elements, celestial aether. He makes parallels with the five elements of eastern philosophies and their relationship to the chakras, acupuncture and Chinese astrology. Introductory text explores how the elements have defined the components of Earth and the heavens and their relationship to humanity since they were first proposed by the Persian prophet Zoroaster, more than 2,000 years ago. Insightful panel texts punctuate the pages, illuminating key concepts. Pertinent literary, philosophical and spiritual quotations intersperse the amazing images, presenting further commentary on the overarching themes. At a time when humanity's relationship with the Earth teeters on the edge of catastrophe, this compendium of images exploring the natural elements promises the possibility of earthly and spiritual harmony emerging from the chaos.
