title
Nils Hint
Nils Hint is an Estonian blacksmith.
However he calls himself an iron artist rather than a smith.
He is distinguished from a simple metal worker by his wide
range of activities, his chaotic work schedule, longer educational
career and lower income.
On the other hand, He is free to see the material in all its forms and
wonders. In his hands, iron leaves its practical world and can test
forms outside the boundaries given to it.
He captures a variety of scenes through his camera lens
– mostly everyday people and their culture.
He researches the subjects to understand their background
and history when he takes their photographs.
