Images from Pål Hermansen, Mats Andersson, Erik Malm.

 

For a number of years, the photographers Pål Hermansen, Mats Andersson and Erik Malm have been deeply engaged in nature and produced images with a personal and distinctive style. They have now found together to form a common platform making it possible to share with the world the images of their hearts.  In Scandinavia, people are still more tightly connected to nature than in most other countries, and this is clearly reflected in the group´s images.
1 + 1 + 1 is more than 3, and the group forms a unit stronger than the individual photographers themselves, a unit representing the Nordic nature in a unique way...

 

 

 

 

 

 

"Mats Andersson creates images like a painting artist. Or as a poet. I will several times think of Christer Strömholm who has the same personal approach, regardless of motives."

 

 

 

"Fotoböcker är ofta vackra. Mats Anderssons Nature Diary utmärker sig ändå i sammanhanget: det är en sällsynt elegant utgåva, formgiven av fotografen själv. Mats Andersson skapar bilder likt en målande konstnär. Eller en poet för all del. Jag kommer flera gånger att tänka på Christer Strömholm som har samma personliga angreppssätt, oavsett motiv.”
