Carla Åhlander

Often working through photographic series, Carla Åhlander uses this medium to provoke inquisitive looking. Exploring structures of power as well as those that appear as trivial, Carla’s seemingly quiet photos give new stresses to her subject matter. In doing so they reveal, as through a soft haze, memories and histories occluded by surface appearances.
