MARTIN PETERSEN / «I was born in Denmark in 1976, and started photographing in 2002. I mainly do landscape photography. My work primarily deals with the emptiness in spaces. The pictures are usually pictures of something in the middle of nothing, but regularly I will let an object break the nothingness of these scenes. During the last year I have become interested in movement, and have taken series of pictures where the camera stays fixed, and the movement does the storytelling. All series are taken within a couple of hours, I never do series over longer periods of time. To me photography is an experience that captures a certain place at a certain time, and I like to keep it that way. I have had two exhibitions in the last two years and contributed to the album cover of Kloster - “Do Not Be Afraid” back in 2008, and A Doll’s House “The Entire Collection of Lost Memories” in 2011.»
TRIPLE CANOPY / Triple Canopy is an online magazine, workspace, and platform for editorial and curatorial activities. Working collaboratively with writers, artists, and researchers, Triple Canopy facilitates projects that engage the Internet’s specific characteristics as a public forum and as a medium, one with its own evolving practices of reading and viewing, economies of attention, and modes of interaction. In doing so, Triple Canopy is charting an expanded field of publication, drawing on the history of print culture while acting as a hub for the exploration of emerging forms and the public spaces constituted around them.
