Loki is a performance by Pascal Marty and myself, built around the Norse figure of the trickster, a god of fire, transformation, and dissolution. We made the poster images ourselves on the rocks of the Swedish archipelago, working in the flat silver light of the coast.
The rocks of the archipelago feel ancient, worn by sea and weather. We shot over two days across different tidal states, moving with the light, working out of a small boat between islands.
The images carry the ambiguity we wanted for the piece: a figure at the edge of something, not quite human, not quite not. The Leica gave us grain and weight. The sea gave us scale.
