The Mountain was born in the enchanting landscape of Hesten in Northern Norway. During the creating process, I used myself as a photographer and character. This way, all the experiences and insights that awakened in me during the journey, were captured into the photo. Nature opens the gates to the worlds of the soul. My aim is to explore these inner realms and highlight the healing forces flowing from nature that many human souls need, especially today. The Mountain symbolizes the endurance and inner strength.
