"... a fascinating collection of images of wild horses." — Amateur Photographer


Photographer and wildlife activist, Alfie Bowen presents his two-year-long project photographing Britain's wild horses through the eyes of someone living with autism spectrum disorder. Wild Horses is all about connection: Bowen's personal connection to the animals he photographs; his connection to photography as an art form; the horses' connection to one another; and our collective connection to the land and our planet.


Bowen borrows the words of American landscape photographer Ansel Adams to describe his approach to his work: 'You don't make a photograph just with a camera. You bring to the act of photography all the pictures you have seen, the books you have read, the music you have heard, the people you have loved.' For Bowen, photography is an outlet for his emotional energy. It enables him to draw from difficult moments in his life and turn the energy that manifests from his emotions into truly mesmerising images.

Alfie Bowen took up photography in 2014. It became an escape for him, and he credits it with saving his life. He uses his photography to raise awareness of the plight facing many species across the world, and to increase acceptance and understanding of autism. Bowen is proud to be an ambassador for Clinks Care Farm, Big Blue Ocean Cleanup and Young Bird Photographer of the Year. He also works closely with WWF. Alfie Bowen is based in Beccles, Suffolk.

"Following on from the success of his first book, Wild World, Alfie Bowen’s latest publication Wild Horses showcases some of Britain’s finest equines in their natural habitat."

"Stunning new book invites you to witness the magic of wild horses."

"Wild Horses: International acclaim for autistic fine art photographer."

“Fine-art photographer and autistic activist Alfie Bowen reveals the deep affinity with horses that has unlocked his creativity and led to these incredible pictures.”

"Artist and activist Alfie Bowen, who lives with autism spectrum disorder, on how his affinity with horses has guided him through his darkest moments."

"... a fascinating collection of images of wild horses."

"By photographing all the small details around me, I could show them why certain things were so visually pleasing to me and why some environments were so difficult."
