The Taiga is a photography series initially inspired by the Decemberists Hazards of Love album. It tells a story of destructive love, heartbreak and rebirth through handmade clothing, sets and photography. The story takes place in an ancient mysterious forest and is inspired by European fairy tales. The Taiga reminds us that nature is vastly more powerful than any individual. Mae Horak started sketches for this project over 4 years ago and have spent the past year working on bringing the series to life. Each costume, including headpieces and props are handmade by Mae and all photos are taken by her in locations in the greater Boston area. Mae grew up in Belchertown and looks forward to sharing her work with our community.
