伊尔瓦·舍格伦 Ylva Sjögren

我偏爱以黑白形式进行创作,聚焦于概念性的影像。我的主题常常是年龄与时间在我们内心中所生成的状态,同时也包含孤独与禁锢的感受——这些感受既来自内在的力量,也来自外部的作用。

I prefer to work in black and white with conceptual images. My theme is often the inner states that age and time create within us, but also the feelings of loneliness and captivity that affect a person through internal and external forces.

我在充满各种艺术形式的家庭环境中长大。父母会节省开支来购买艺术品,这让我从小便体会到视觉叙事的价值。我一直深受表现主义及其强烈情感表达的吸引,这也在我的影像中得以体现。多年来,我从事肖像绘画与抽象艺术的创作。但在经历了一段病痛之后,我转向了摄影。起初,我的拍摄对象是自然,如今我更倾向于拍摄人物。
I grew up surrounded by art in various forms in my home. My parents saved money to be able to buy art. This gave me a sense of the value of visual storytelling. I have always felt drawn to expressionism and strong emotional expression, and this is reflected in my images. I worked for many years with portrait painting and abstract art, but after a period of illness, I switched to photography. At first, my subjects were nature, but now I prefer to photograph people.
