Crossed Lines: Abstract and Graphic Nature Photography of Ice Structures by Nanda Bussers

A minimalist photograph of crisp ice lines and structures, evoking a modern, cool and soothing atmosphere.

‘The Breath of Norway’ came about during the two years I lived in Norway with my husband. It was a time when nature formed a large part of our daily lives and when I got to know the country better and better – from the vast landscapes and rugged coastlines to the soft light, the mountains, the ice and the endless changes of the seasons.

For me, this series is not just about what I saw there, but above all about how it felt to be there. The space, the silence, the light and the rhythm of nature had something special about them. Sometimes grand and overwhelming, sometimes small and almost still.

When putting the series together, I therefore sought not only the most beautiful landscapes, but images that, taken together, convey that sense of Norway. Images in which you can lose yourself for a moment, discover a detail or simply linger a little longer.

With ‘The Breath of Norway’, I want to bring some of that sense of breathing space that I experienced there into your home. A visual haven of tranquillity on the wall, inspired by nature and the memories of a special period in my life.
