Roger Pettersen

I am drawn to what is close at hand and easily overlooked—the quiet details, worn surfaces and fleeting moments that sit just outside our everyday attention.

Through photography, I transform familiar subjects into abstract landscapes of light, colour and texture. The recognisable is allowed to slip into something more ambiguous: part observation, part memory, part dream.

My background as a cinematographer shapes the way I see. I look for atmosphere, rhythm and the small shifts in light that can turn an ordinary scene into a world of its own.
