About Botanical Reverie

Botanical Reverie is an intimate exploration of vintage beauty, femininity, nature and the art of transforming ordinary spaces into extraordinary visual experiences. Conceptualised and handcrafted by LiH Ocean, the set was built entirely in her own backyard in Albuquerque, New Mexico: a vintage white bathtub surrounded by lush greenery, white shutters, a gilded mirror and candles.


In a fitted grey knit dress, pearls and bold pink lipstick, her tattoos and long dark waves set against the green, LiH Ocean reclines among the leaves in the tub and poses at the vanity. Through the lens of Nick Harvey the set comes alive with a cinematic atmosphere that blends nostalgia, elegance and organic beauty, a celebration of resourcefulness and of creating something entirely your own.
