Natural Shape




I wanted to capture both the depression of nature in winter and
the solid state of Stockholm. Södermalm, the island where I took
all photos published today, with a population of 90.000 people,
is mostly built on rock. It shows in both how buildings have had to adjust
to the natural shape of the landscape,
and in the way rock is used in many ways when it comes to decoration,
sculptures and many other uses. It's a peaceful and mighty material and it's strength seeps
through giving me a feeling of being protected as I walk
alongside these massive gray building-blocks of Södermalm.
