Nina Andersson Voigt Photography
Nina Andersson Voigt spent nine years in New York working in cafes, studying at ICP, and assisting Roe Ethridge — badly, by her own cheerful admission. She shot her first editorial for Index Magazine with Bijou Phillips in upstate New York, styled by Mel Ottenberg, and she had the best time. Back in Stockholm now, she shoots people she really wants to shoot. She finds them on Instagram and sends an email asking if she may take their picture. Often she shoots the same person many times.
“Visibility has never been our measure of significance. We seek out artists and inspiring individuals whose work sparks curiosity, challenges assumptions, and leaves a lasting impression.”
Every project, image, and story is about framing a series of questions that are deeply important to me as a human being.- Shirin Neshat
