Exposed to Vulnerability

Released 2021

"Exposed to Vulnerability" is my first photographic book. 

It's about how we as artists, photographers and human beings are exposed to a vulnerability.


From the book.

"How is photography actually defined? Is it through the exhibited vulnerability that the photographer stands up and gives a clear signal that he wants to maintain the situation or is it the vulnerability in the situation that makes the photographer stop, adjust to the situation and take his picture. From both angles, vulnerability plays a role. Often the role of the photographer is double-edged, both as the vulnerable and as the one who perpetuates the vulnerable. I would argue that when this is the case, the one who assumes both roles are also the one who is best at retaining them.

By that, I mean at the same time, the photographer who is not afraid to show his vulnerability and put it into play can bring home the best images.

Vulnerability is the strength of the strongest and bravest"

Loneliness of Being Among Others

Released 2022

Through the project Loneliness of Being Among Others, I explore the state or feeling of being lonely among others in a collective space. 

The state of loneliness can be experienced and oc- cur for several reasons. It can be an experience, an abuse, a trauma, an illness or just the desire to be oneself, that leaves us in the state of loneliness. 

To be lonely among others when one cannot, will not or dare to share. The fear of not being accommodated or met in difficult situations or emotions, can lead us to the feeling or state of loneliness, whether this is self-chosen or not. 

Basically, I consider the feeling of loneliness as a state. I do not value this state, but simply consider it a state. This means that I do not attribute traits to this condition as good or bad. Just being in a state. 

Starting point of the project was my own experienced states of loneliness in social contexts. To feel alone and lonely, among others, without this being neither a bad nor a good condition - just a condi- tion. I have chosen to express the state of loneliness through photography. 

This book is part of a project in which the state in particular serves as a starting point for further un- covering the concept and the state of loneliness.

MANDØ

Released 2022

The photo art book is about Time and timelessness and how I found Time throughout my stays at Mandø.

From the book.

"Throughout my time at Mandø I found Time, and in my meeting with Mandø I found a frequency to reproduce Time as motif and expression.

The book is therefore far more about time than a specific place, despite the fact that the place is the motivator of the expression. It has become clear to me through my stay on the island that Time is the focal point.

Thus Mandø became the frequency of Time.

I often think about my motifs and find that over time the motif itself becomes less significant, while making it more important. As a frequency of disseminating states, emotions and thoughts. The subject remains important and essential. The subject lifts and carries the state I want to convey. This duality is pervasive.

I have chosen to view Mandø through my cameras and express my Mandø through pictures. This is where this book came out of.

Mandø was the place where I found Time and the quiet life. What most of us have the most of in life.

Mandø found me and I found the time."
