Photographer Michael Taylor from Northern Ireland aims to “let light reveal itself.”

Using electroluminescent wire, Taylor explores luminescence. A current is passed through a copper wire causing the surrounding phosphor coating to emit light. The EL wire is wrapped around or within the costumes worn by the model and the movements are then recorded introducing a kinetic element. The result: some very cool photos.
