Nordland - Heidi Müller
Exhibition Dates July 5th – 31st, 2011
Heidi Müller is an internationally working photographer from Germany who studied Photography in London, UK. Having worked in Germany, the UK and Norway, she is currently living and working in Halifax, Nova Scotia. "My exhibition presents monochrome prints of the unique, stark beauty of an area in northern Norway. Over a period of four years (2006 – 2009) I collected many different images. With this show I would like to take you on a journey and give you an insight into the mood and feel of this place. I would describe this rough and weather beaten area as quite bleak and barren. But as I stayed there for awhile I gradually became aware of the hidden beauty emerging from this rough landscape. Everything seemed to be stripped down to its bare elements and I found myself spellbound by its unique beauty. I was overwhelmed by the fight between the elements of nature, presenting a wild and spectacular performance enhanced by the ever changing light conditions. Life seemed to move at a different pace there, and many things which seemed important in my life didn't seem to matter anymore. It was a strange feeling of existence, just being there confronted by bare nature."
Opening Reception Thursday, July 7th 6pm – 9pm
