Skrivande frilansfotograf. Harsysslatmed gatufotoi varierande intensitet sedan 1980-talet. Genom alla år med en förkärlek till spårbundna miljöer så somtågstationer ochtunnelbanor. Någraavbildernapå utställningen togs 1988 dåjag tillbringade två veckor iParis tunnelbana med min kamera. Bildernahar tillbringat merparten av åren undangömdai en kartong iförrådet.Något somi min mening visar på det historiskavärdetavgatufoto somdokumentationavenvardagsom annars bara passerar. Jag hadeäven mednågra nytagna svartvita bilder med utgångspunkt isamma tema.

Freelance photographer/journalist. I've been engaged in street photography withvarying intensity since the 1980s, alwayswitha strongpreference forrail-boundenvironments like train stations and subways. Some of thephotosinthis exhibition were taken in 1988, when Ispent twoweeksinthe Paris Metro with my camera.Theseimages have spent most of theyears hidden away in abox in storage. In my opinion,this highlights the historical value of street photography as adocumentationofeveryday life thatwould otherwise simplypassby. Ialsoincluded some recently taken black-and-white photos based on thesame theme.
