Photographers

Katarina Grip Höök

URTID is a series of landscape photos taken on Gotland. She has worked with the prehistoric feelings she gets from the land itself, but is also about herself, and her childhood, her own prehistory when living on this island.

"I believe that the first landscape of our childhood leaves a strong impression inside us, so that we will always harbour a longing for those places."

Although these photographs aren't ritual based i really like the idea of how she portrayed her feelings through her images alike how we have to portray how we feel about our ritual that we photograph.




The lighting in these photographs and the tone of them makes for extremely appealing images.


I love the feel of these images, having them black and white makes them seem very personal and elegant. When i look at these images i feel as though I'm emotionally attached to them.



Walker Evans


He's primarily a photographer of environments rather than people.

I really like the tone and feel of these two photographs, in both images you have to really look to see what's being told and shown, especially in the bottom image.
