Photo Fringe Danny Wilson Memorial Award Winner, Elissa Jane Diver studied Photography at the University of Brighton, receiving BA First Class Honours in 2012. After working as a photographer and raising two boys, she returned to education and graduated from the Royal College of Art (MA Photography) in 2022, with a distinction for her dissertation exploring notions of the wild in art and culture.

For her project Wilding, shown at The Regency Town House during Photo Fringe 2022, Elissa spent time at Knepp Rewilding Project in West Sussex where she had been walking for the previous two years. It takes its name from the book Wilding by Isabella Tree.
