To find some scandinavian designer or photographer wasn’t that easy like yesterday the french. Maybe i was a little too spoiled of our western neighboring country. But i found one designer and 2 photographers i’d like to share.
First to come is »Andreas Pihlström«, who’s a swedish mixture on his portfolio of graphic and photo or photos that could be graphics, or less a quite base for graphic working. Or click his blog for a little more. It’s not that much, but a worthy right-click on your mouse.
»Kimm Saatvedt« seems to be more the staged-snapshot-photographer, who definitely took longer, than you think by first viewing. I like his fullscreen-portfolio and many of his photos.
»Knotan« is more into portrait-photographs, but his way kind of banish anybody seems to be very interesting. View the 96 photos on his website or 4 more images i found on ponyexpress.
A little younger. A little more street:
Dokument Förlag from Sweden coming with »1207« book (the police-code for damage to property in Sweden), Portraits of Stockholm. In this book, the artist decided the location of getting shooted and documented. Some directly on the crime scene, some home, some in a club, it’s like weapons of choice. The photographer Torkel Sjötrand impresses with technique and composition. It’s not all about the works of the artists, it’s about the artists themselves. Good or bad is a decision on your own. But the atmosphere of the book is able to capture. You can read and see a little more here.
