Silver award at Graphis Photography Annual 2019
I’m glad to announce that my project about the art subway stations in Stockholm has won the silver award at Graphis Photography Annual 2019 in Newyork
During the last two years, I photographed the most fascinating Underground stations in Sweden, due to the nature of the ground in Sweden, Sweden had to use sophisticated engineering technics to build underground structures in Stockholm and Malmo. Most of the undergrounds have a cave-like ambiance, The subway system in Sweden is said to be the world's longest art exhibit. Traveling by subway is like traveling through an exciting story that extends from the artistic pioneers of the 1950s to the art experiments of today. Most of the stations have been built and decorated with sculptures, mosaics, paintings, installations, engravings, and reliefs by over 150 artists. Some of the stations have also a concept that it shows in the art, be it women's rights or excavations from the historic remains of the cities. it is authentic and refreshing in comparison to underground stations in many other cities in Europe.
The images were taken mostly in summer during the day.
