A Journey to the Arctic Circle and Beyond
Northland Symphony
At times one has to wait for months until the sea releases an object and the light flatters its structure in such a way that an extraordinary image can be taken. Isabelle Bacher demonstrates that waiting pays off. In her work she plays with the quality of the lights of the north: daylight, moonlight, northern lights. An extraordinary interplay of light and shadow.
The north: rough living conditions, isolation, unsettled weather, untouched nature, mercilessly chill and wild animals – not the ordinary place of longing.
»Maybe it’s because of my Norwegian mother and the Scandinavian blood in my veins, my sun-sensitive skin or just the fact that sparse landscapes have always fascinated me more than palm trees and beaches. No tropical paradise could ever take it on with my love for the North.
