title
Akerselva
The trees is photographed from above on bridges and from ground and upwards to give an abstract feeling.
The trees become lines and formations, and a playful depth by the sunlight.
In 1993 he moved to Oslo, where he still lives.
Growing up in Finnmark has inspired many of his projects.
Anders is fascinated by the raw and bare nature of northern Norway, as well as post-war architecture.
His pictures from northern Norway often play on the combination of architecture and nature. Humanity is absent while emptiness and decay take up a larger place in the motifs.
After a great curiosity for photography, he started at Robert Meyers Academy of Fine Arts in 2001 and graduated in 2005.
Anders has exhibited in Bologna, Tokyo and at the North Norwegian Art Exhibition in 2022, 2020, 2012 and 2007, he was an invited exhibitor at the Photography Day at Preus Museum in 2021.
Anders has also shown the project "most of the time we are somewhere else" at the North Cape Museum and Berlevåg Harbour Museum in 2022.
There are works by Anders in the North Cape Museum's collection, the Robert Meyer collection, part of the National Gallery's collection, and the Norwegian group.
