Publisher's description
Jorma Puranen (born 1951) is one of Finland’s best-known photographers. For his latest series, Icy Prospects, inspired by the fascination of great explorers (and today’s tourists) with the Arctic landscape, Puranen painted a wooden board with black, high-gloss acrylic and then took long exposures of the landscapes mirrored in its surface. The results are extremely painterly impressions of nature, in which ground, brushstroke and reflection intermingle.
