Rooted in Nature. Composed in Stillness.
Welcome to Grounded Compositions — a view on the subtle textures and quiet details of the natural world. Inspired by the delicate interplay of life and time my work captures compositions of lichen-covered surfaces, inviting you to pause, reflect, and discover the beauty in the overlooked.
Connect with nature through contemplative photographs of lichen in Scandinavia, inspired by friluftsliv: the Nordic tradition of living closely with the outdoors.
“Craft is what we are expected to know; art is the unexpected use of our craft.”― Ed Catmull, Creativity, Inc.
“The more one learns of this intricate interplay of soil, altitude, weather, and the living tissues of plant and insect (an intricacy that has its astonishing moments, as when sundew and butterwort eat the insects), the more the mystery deepens. Knowledge does not dispel mystery.”
― Nan Shepherd, The Living Mountain
Grounded Compositions invites closer attention to the resilience, complexity and unexpected beauty of lichen.
“So simply to look on anything, such as a mountain, with the love that penetrates to its essence, is to widen the domain of being in the vastness of non-being. Man has no other reason for his existence.”― Nan Shepherd, The Living Mountain
