Exhibitions & Photography Talks

Bringing Arctic and wild worlds to galleries, public spaces and audiences.

For more than a decade my images have traveled beyond the page — into galleries, town halls, airports and public gardens, and into rooms where an audience gathers to hear a story told in pictures. This page presents two ways of working together: exhibitions that put prints on a wall, and talks that bring a narrated journey to a room.

Exhibitions

An exhibition can be a short, punctual event or a long-term installation. It can be shown indoors — in a gallery, a town hall, an airport or a waiting room — or outdoors, in a public garden or an urban space. Every project is adapted to its venue and its audience, from a handful of framed prints to a full curated walk-through.

Existing themes

With the exception of the wolf theme — which can be presented in Norwegian by wolf specialist Dorthe Rasmussen — every other theme is presented by me, in English. The exhibition texts themselves, however, can be produced in Norwegian or any other language.

An existing story, or one built for you

Every exhibition can be assembled from an existing body of work, or become an entirely original creative project. I am also available on commission — to travel to a specific place, spend time with a specific subject, and produce a new series of photographs created for that exhibition alone.

Outdoor photo exhibition in an urban public space

Beyond gallery walls

Weatherproof prints and outdoor formats bring an exhibition into streets, squares and public gardens — open to anyone passing by.

Photo exhibition inside a cultural centre

Indoors, with care

In a cultural centre, a town hall or an airport, prints are framed, hung and lit to suit the space — a considered installation rather than a simple hang.

Photo exhibition displayed in a public garden

Outdoors, in the open

A public garden or a pedestrian path becomes a free, open-air gallery — a way to reach an audience that would never step into one.

Photography Talks

Alongside exhibitions, I give photography talks — an evening built around a screen, a projector and a story. These sessions can take several forms.

01

Photographic narrative

Images sequenced to tell the story of a place, a species or a journey — a visual account built to be watched in silence, then discussed.

02

Commented screening

A slideshow presented live, with anecdotes, technique and context shared by me as the images unfold on screen.

03

Travel journal

A first-person account of an expedition, from preparation to the moments in the field that produced the final photographs.
