In recent years, visual artist Peter Stridsberg has worked with photographic stagings and installations, exploring the significance and function of landscapes in our lives. Since moving back to Umeå in 2021, Stridsberg has examined what the concept of landscape means to us humans during the ongoing green transition, as the urban landscape continuously expands toward nature and the spaces we walk upon. Recently, he has explored the act of photography itself and the origins of the scene, poetically portraying the transformation of landscapes and places alongside human presence.

In Stridsberg’s exhibition Into the Light at Galleri Moment, he presents his brand-new photographic works from 2025, in which the gaze and the presence of light take center stage in various photographic poems. These staged photographs are part of his ongoing project Night’s Greenery, in which he maps his in-between identity in relation to nature and the shifting landscapes around him. The works are accompanied by an exhibition text written by Carl-Johan Olsson of the Nationalmuseum, who highlights and analyzes Stridsberg’s multifaceted gaze from both historical and contemporary perspectives.
