Five Beautiful Things

 

Northern Exposure

Artist and photographer Andreas Lie is inspired by the landscape and wildlife of his surroundings in Bergen, a coastal community in Norway, nestled between seven mountains. What is particularly unique about his work is its double-exposure effect, blending the landscape photography with the figures in his work to achieve a layered look that is virtually seamless, tying the mysticism of forest lore to the animals that dwell in it. The tips of snow-capped pines become the fur on a wayward wolf. The shadows of mountains and valleys accentuate the curve of a bear’s back. Visit his website to see more of his work.
