Vision. Photographers are often hard pressed to formulate a vision for their photographic practice. If I were able to formulate such a vision, there would hardly be any reason for me to create images, since I would be able to express the meaning of my images in ordinary language. What I seek in images, however, is something that moves beyond such a language, something that only exists in images as a visual language. What makes this practice exciting to me is the encounter with the landscape as it reveals itself when attended carefully. I hope that my images convey this experience to the viewer. Exploring the Nordic environment, I work primarily in black and white, since its tonal transitions allow me to express some of the elements in this landscape that I am drawn to — the mood of its soft light and its subtle transformations of ordinary places.
This website is only an introduction to my black and white landscape photographs. To me, the physical print, not the digital image, is the final expression of my work. The size, aspect ratio and paper used for the print determine how the image appears to the beholder as an autonomous, physical object endowed with an agency of its own. This also applies to black and white photographs, where the print translates form, texture and light into tactile and tonal qualities that take on a reality of their own. For this reason, I print my images on high-quality paper myself.
