Thrown into Water
Thrown into Water consist of 21 pictures of 25 bodies. Naked bodies floating among each other like in an archaic frieze with a common ornamental story. The naked bodies making an imprint like in Paleolithic cave art. The title Thrown into Water refers to the feeling of loosing control: – to be floating in an endless space – like in sorrow – like loosing yourself – like loosing somebody – like the loss as a common human experience.
Thrown into Water is a cycle of pictures of a journey through the water, described in the series :
Waves
Jellyfish
The structure of the waves turns into pictures with associations to Jellyfish.
Water
Water is a serie of four photographs in which, I examine the water and the movements of the water.
Interference
The wave images are inspired by the the story of how the the Polynesians could navigate without a compass on open and unknown seas. They did so based on the knowledge of the interference effect that a remote island, ie. an island below the horizon, evokes in the wave image on the high seas.
Coast and Landscape
In Coast the cycle comes to an end. Sorrow and loss have turned into pictures and experience with death and life. The autor Joan Didion has during the journey inspired me with her book, The year of magical thinking from which I quote: I know we try to keep the dead alive, we try to keep them alive in order to keep them with us. I also know that, if we are to live ourselves, there comes a point of which we must relinquish the dead, let them go, keep them dead. Let them become the photograph on the table. Let go of them in the water. Knowing this does not make it any easier to let go in the water
