Felicitas Hoppe is a German writer. She was chosen for Germany’s most prestigious literary award 2012, the Büchner Prize. Her latest novel “Hoppe” is being published in Sweden on monday. I photographed her last summer, outside her apartment in Berlin, Mitte.
I did a travel story about my beloved Neukölln (in Berlin) together with Karin Wallén, and it’s featured in the latest issue of Vagabond. In stores now! I will post some images from the story in my travel portfolio soon.

So much unspoken, so little revealed

So Much Unspoken So Little Revealed
Det är med stor tillförsikt och stolthet jag ser mina studenter på Masterutbildningen i Fotografi´s första år vid Akademin Valand presentera sig i denna deras första grupputställning So Much Unspoken So Little Revealed. Deras arbeten visar genomgående på ett sökande efter andra eller nya innovativa sätt att tala. Om fotografi. Med fotografi. Genom fotografi. Det är också så vi arbetar tillsammans i utbildningen. Genom samtal, i rum. Vi delar med oss och talar om våra erfarenheter. Vi letar efter nya strategier, vi använder oss av nya och gamla tekniker för att försöka ta fotografiet till platser det inte förut varit på. De flesta av oss tror att vi vet vad fotografi är. Men i en tid, när tolkningen av vår omvärld verkar mer komplex än någonsin, inte minst i relation till de ämnen som tas upp i utställningen (miljöfrågor, konsumtion, politik, ekonomi och genusfrågor (måste fotografiets roll och betydelse hela tiden omdefinieras. So Much Unspoken So Little Revealed visar på att det finns så mycket mer att säga. Att vi måste fortsätta vara i ständig konversation, med bilden. Med fotografiet. Med varandra.
Lotta Antonsson
Utställningen pågår till 31 mars 2013.
Öppettider: Torsdag- söndag kl. 12.00-16.00.

New column
Kamera & Bild #3 2013 is on its way and will be in stores soon. Column by me, as promised. This time it’s a bit funnier than last time. I just submitted the text for #4 last night and it’s about the analog craze (mostly prevalent among young arty photographers). For #5 I’m going all McGyver on you.
So. I figure this is the problem with my Phase One camera. Shutter salad. This spontaneous remix of shutter blinds will cost about 6000 SEK + VAT to repair. I am not very happy.
Stylish!
These 80 USD camera straps by Sarah Frances Kuhn are adorable. I would surely like to have one. I’m not sure they will make me look very professional, though. As a (woman) professional photographer I always run into guys wanting to test my tech skills and I would probably be even more of an interesting target for the tech bullies.
And I’m not sure they are very practical, either. Something for the compact, maybe. I DO want a Fuji X100…
