Due to the number of emails received whilst we were away, we´re planning to relaunch carboncollective™, the series in which we showcased some of the more interesting up and coming photographers from Scandinavia. Over the last few years, we've selected some of the more interesting new photographers from Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden in order to exhibit a small selection of their work.
Prior to the relaunch, we need little excuse to revisit one of our favorite Scandinavian photographers, Lina Scheynius. Originally from Vänersborg but raised in Trollhättan, Lina now divides her time between London and Paris. Since we last wrote about her, her work has been published in an impressive list of titles including AnOther Magazine, Double, Exit, Dazed and Confused, Elle US, Numero Korea and most recently, Vogue UK. Much of Lina´s work takes the form of a pictorial diary that somehow elevates the banal and everyday into extraordinary and magical moments. Her commissioned fashion shoots manage to capture the same spontaneity and lack of nostalgia evident in her more personal work. Life in the moment captured, preserved and presented unself-consciously. Take a look below at a selection of our favorite images from her recent work:
