I live and work in Copenhagen, Denmark, together with my family. I enjoy photographing intermediary and intimate landscape scenes in Scandinavia. Black and white images appeal to me, partly because its tonalities provides a rich visual language, partly because this medium offers extensive freedom to develop personal interpretations of the scene in question. In my day job, I am professor of philosophy at the university of Copenhagen, where I work on Ancient Greek ethics, historiography of philosophy, and environmental ethics. Although it is tempting to connect these two interests — photography and philosophy — I find the former most interesting and valuable when its visual language stands on its own and is not subordinated to the latter.
