Born in Oslo, Norway in 1978. Current lives and works in London. Graduated from London College of Communication in 2008, and has since gone on to develop his photographic practice, focusing on human relationships and social issues such as integration, migration and urban alienation.
"The series Plucked is an investigation into the duality of the home, urban alienation, social segregation and human relationships. This duality of the home extends further, adding layers to the series, incorporating the ethics of both social documentary and staged photography, as well as the possible cognitive dissonant experience of the viewer. This dissonance was built around notions of ambiguity and the uncanny. The images are talking about the everyday with a calm and beautiful surface, but that, on closer inspection, raises question about the apparent peaceful depiction, juxtaposing the viewer's emotional response to the photographs with a subtler sinister undercurrent. When this emotion is strong enough to allow the viewer to travel back through their personal history, to where a similar emotion was encountered, the viewer is removed from the physical object, that is the photograph, and the situation it is depicting. This journey is a personal reflection that considers social truth." (Geir Moseid)
