The „Erebus“ series consists of twenty black-and-white giclee fine art photographs that capture the essence of modern times. These images are inspired by the contrast between nature and urbanization in Mossen, a parkland area surrounded by highrises. They have been processed to evoke a gothic, almost primordial feeling that reflects the uncertainties of our world. The title „Erebus,“ which refers to a personification of darkness in Greek mythology and a place of darkness in the underworld on the way to Hades, encapsulates this feeling.
Fine art photographs: the process
I make these prints using a specially adapted and crafted printing process, using specialized carbon-based inks to achieve maximum detail and archival quality. The images are printed on 350gsm Hahnemühle Fine Art Baryta paper using a modified Epson SureArt P800 printer.
Camera technique
I shot these images on a Fujifilm GFX 100s camera with an 80mm f/1.7 lens. This camera has a medium format sensor that, combined with exquisite optics, produces images of extreme detail and quality.
