Quietudes

"There's a lot of dualities at play in photography. In my practice, I reflect over the tension between observing and engaging, to be distant and close, to contemplate and communicate - and my camera functions as a tool to explore those borders, and to search for a place in-between."

Scandinavian photographer photographer and designer, Daniel Zachrisson, composes images that create a sense of tension with one another whilst encompassing a variety of subject matter. This book features a series of photographs that are unconventionally connected through their disparate themes.

With a carefully curated colour palate, this collection takes us from isolated landscapes to charismatic urban scenes. Along the way, there are a series of people who are caught in deeply personal or busier moments, yet, in either setting, there is a feeling of uncertainty around the situations and in what state the characters appear in these.
