Self-portrait.


Winner of the British Journal of Photography x Art3.io 365 competition, 2021. This work was created towards the end of the covid19 lockdown here in Denmark, trying to express the feeling of being locked down, not just externally, but internally as well. As a self-portrait artist, I am used to working alone from home and I love it. I can follow and act out my inspiration when it comes. During lockdown though, I found that my creativity disappeared completely, between homeschooling, childcare, worrying about the virus, my finances, and being around people 24-7. This work was my way of expressing the feeling of literally crawling the ceiling - but also a kind of rebirth as creative ideas started flowing again.

“FROM THE EDGES” – MELANCHOLY AESTHETICS Photo art at Galleri Øckenlund Cold January offers a photo exhibition that appeals to the aesthetic eye. .

Maria Fynsk Norup's pictures are staged art photos where the body, time and space are explored. The body shines brightly on the dark background and creates contrast, so it attracts attention. It moves in extreme positions, as if it is exploring its own boundaries and those of the surrounding space. Her works are very aesthetic; completely harmonized in their colours, lines and shapes, which almost appear graphic. Here, too, you feel like composing stories based on the motifs. Both artists balance on the mixture of melancholic motifs and hyperaesthetic idioms.
