Through his photographs, viewers are offered a unique glimpse into an alternative dimension established by the silence of the night and the fleeting moments in the tranquil valleys. This is a world of both peace and anxiety, where hidden creatures of the night might be lurking beneath an infinite expanse of starry sky or racing cyclists will be dancing with darkness, casting shadows on the highway.

Carsten Ingemann (b. 1952) is a renowned Danish photographer who lives and works in Copenhagen, Denmark. He graduated as a photographic journalist in 1973 and has spent the majority of his career as a reporter, covering war and conflict zones until 2008.

BLACK SUN by SØREN SOLKÆR

BLACK SUN by Søren Solkær

Black Sun is a project by Danish photographer Søren Solkær capturing one of nature’s most spectacular phenomena; the large murmurations of starlings. As the countless birds congregate in large murmurations before collectively settling in the reeds at dusk, they put on an incredible show of collaboration and performance skills twice a year when they migrate from one destination to the next. Growing up in Southern Denmark, where this breathtaking scenery unfolds, Søren always had a fascination for the starlings that naturally lead to the start of this project.

Søren lives and works in Denmark. Born in 1969, he graduated from a B.A at FAMU Photo and Film Academy in Prague in 1995 and from Aarhus University in 1993. His work “Black Sun” has gained recognition from the New York Times and many other publications. He has also exhibited his work at important museums worldwide and his works are part of important collections.

Gils, will be showing his series Transfer is a further development of the sophisticated multi-exposures of the Movement series, which is already known for its spacious and picturesque qualities. In this new extension of the series, the works undergo another transformation. As polaroids they are further transferred onto watercolour paper. Through this technique a particularly atmospheric and dreamy mood arises, which lends a certain abstract expressionistic layer to the images. Upon closer inspection, however, the eye begins to decode that in these works there are real places depicted, all with their special characteristics. In this way, the viewer is left in a state of both presence and the chance to disappear deep into the works. Transfer opens up the idea of landscape photography as a form of portal to a deeper emotional scenery.
