@edgarberg here with my final post ending this week's @Fotografiska takeover with simplicity - a portrait built on instinct and connection.

While most of my work is carefully planned with clear concepts, I always leave space for spontaneity. Like a muscle, you have to train it once in a while, or it might fade.

In minimal images, small details carry a lot of weight. I often circle around the subject, watching the light shift, until it creates the right amount of depth and contrast. From there I let the subject's emotion find room to emerge.

Thank you @fotografiska for having me! Thank you all for letting me share a few pieces of my world with you.

@edgarberg here with a look back at some of my favorite mirror and reflection moments over the years.

As a creative, I am always amazed by reflections, a key ingredient in my work, whether from man-made mirrors or natural surfaces like water. There’s something mesmerizing about how they bend light and reshape reality, creating a visual dialogue that feels both familiar and otherworldly. I love exploring how reflections transform the ordinary, adding depth, mystery, or even surrealism to my images.

Hi everyone, @edgarberg here to show you another one of my favorite series for the @fotografiska takeover.

"Man on the Moon"

Photographed in New York, this series highlights the human relationship and the way in which union is even more important in the most difficult times. The story is inspired by the much anticipated moon landing in 1969 and how this event allowed us to dream of an unimaginable future.

My dear friend and long time collaborator Angel Macias found these original newspapers from 1969 in a fleamarket upstate and I felt like creating a story that brings people together, so it was the perfect coincidence.

@edgarberg here sharing my 4th post with you.

Cinema has always had a major influence on my work. I’m fascinated by the way films use light, framing, and atmosphere to evoke emotion. I often challenge myself to capture the same storytelling within a single frame. Where cinema unfolds over time, photography must suggest time, place, and feeling all at once. 

Here are two images from a series I shot in Iceland, where also the landscape itself felt cinematic. I imagined a story of a man and a woman waking up on opposite ends of the unknown. Somehow they are aware of each other and drawn by an invisible force, they begin to move, slowly and instinctively until they finally meet.

Swipe to the last slide to see the moving image version and how both mediums speak to each other.

@edgarberg here on Day 3 of taking over @Fotografiska for the week.

Volume is a recurring ingredient in my work - an element I return to whenever the concept allows. I’m drawn to garments that can create shape or movement in a sculptural form.

Designers like Issey Miyake (image 5) are a constant inspiration, offering silhouettes that let me explore a wide range of visual expressions. From bold and energetic to calm and contemplative. Volume, for me, is not just about size but about presence and flow within the frame.

Here are some of my favorite works throughout the years.

Hi everyone, @edgarberg here with my second post for the @fotografiska takeover.

"Little Leaders of Hope"

Just before the world came to a standstill in 2020, I traveled to Bali with no fixed agenda, only the intention to let my camera and the island guide me. At the airport, I met Wayan, a local driver. We struck up an unexpected conversation that led to a lasting connection.

A few weeks later, Wayan invited me to his village in Tabanan, a serene and largely untouched region far from the tourist trail. There, I met his warm-hearted family and kids, whose joyful energy and spirit sparked the idea for this project.

The main idea was to portray the kids as small grown-ups who break free from the daily grind culture of work. My stylist friend Angel and I challenged ourselves to only source clothing and accessories from flea markets. With a DIY approach in mind, we painted and repurposed all pieces for our project by adding colourful, imperfect and joyful elements.

The colour palettes play an important role in most of my projects. Here I wanted to create a calm, peaceful but also joyful story and the colour blue embodies these characteristics. In addition to that, one of the children’s names was Krisna. He is named after the blue god of protection, compassion, tenderness and love, magically closing the circle on the symbolic nature of the story.

Hi world, I’m @edgarberg, a photographer & director based in Europe. Over the next seven days I’ll be taking over @Fotografiska to share some of my favorite works and insights with you.

"The Space Between Us" is a portrait of the essential bond between humans and nature. I wanted to strip away all distractions and capture that connection in its rawest form. While the images feel minimal, every detail is intentional, like the 250-meter fabric that physically links the bodies or the simple shower caps that create a sense of anonymous unity.

The concept had been travelling with me for years, and in 2018 I finally found the right moment to bring it to life. South Africa, a place I had visited a few times before, offered inspiring landscapes and warm, textured light that I haven't seen elsewhere before.

At the time, I was deeply immersed in commercial and fashion photography, and this project felt like a creative reset. It allowed me to explore a more personal, intuitive direction again and reconnect with my own vision as an artist.

#FotografiskaFeatures

Hi world, I’m @edgarberg, a photographer & director based in Europe. Over the next seven days I’ll be taking over @Fotografiska to share some of my favorite works and insights with you.

"The Space Between Us" is a portrait of the essential bond between humans and nature. I wanted to strip away all distractions and capture that connection in its rawest form. While the images feel minimal, every detail is intentional, like the 250-meter fabric that physically links the bodies or the simple shower caps that create a sense of anonymous unity.

The concept had been travelling with me for years, and in 2018 I finally found the right moment to bring it to life. South Africa, a place I had visited a few times before, offered inspiring landscapes and warm, textured light that I haven't seen elsewhere before.

At the time, I was deeply immersed in commercial and fashion photography, and this project felt like a creative reset. It allowed me to explore a more personal, intuitive direction again and reconnect with my own vision as an artist.
