Ann George

"I use photography as more than a means to capture a moment in time, but as a voice to capture a movement through time. I seek to describe a journey, a fairytale, a feeling of progression to – and through – themes that engage my artistic eye. Such are the images you see in The Three Chapters Of Illumination: God Calling. This series, created during a difficult period of uncertainty and loss, represents a metaphorical journey in three stages: one of burden, to knowledge, and into liberty – with the wolf symbolizing fear, and the young woman overcoming this fear.

In an effort to create images that evoke a sense of nostalgia, I blend modern Photoshop techniques with historical printing-out processes, and use photogravure, oils, glazes, and waxes to achieve my vision. I create images that appeal to my vintage eye, challenging me to seek different approaches and techniques in the camera, in the computer, in the printing and with paint." --Ann George.

Benjamin Rasmussen

"I spent my childhood with an indigenous people group on an island in the southern Philippines, my university years with evangelicals in a small town in northern Arkansas, and a year in my father's home with the descendants of Vikings in the Faroe Islands, a nation of 45,000 residents in the middle of the North Atlantic.

This complex background has led me to explore questions of identity, belonging and home through my work. My photography orbits around the idea of place and its importance to the community and the individual."

Benjamin Rasmussen was chosen as one of Photolucida's 2010 Critical Mass Top 50 and included in the Magenta Foundation's Flash Forward -- Emerging Photographers 2011 and 2012 lists. His work has been selected for the American Photography 26 and 28 Annuals and awarded in the 2010 POYi awards. In 2014, Photo District News selected Benjamin for its "PDN 30: New and Emerging Photographers to Watch." See more of his work at: benjaminrasmussenphoto.com

Tim Eskild Jørgensen

"The subjects are drawn from everywhere, and yet there's a sense in which they all appear to hail from the same iconographical realm. While constituting visual records of places and spaces, they are even more an attestation to a consistent mode of seeing. We are left feeling that the world is pre-configured to be transposed into image. I don't want the images to end at the picture's edge. They continue far beyond – to where the thoughts leap even as our eyes are engaged. Persistently impelled there by the picture. Transported." --Tim Eskild Jørgensen

Born in 1968, Tim Eskild Jorgensen is a Danish artist, and a graduate of the prestigious (FAMU) Academy of Performing Arts in Prague. Tim's architectural landscapes have been published internationally, and his fine art work has been featured in numerous group exhibitions as well as several solo shows both in his native Denmark and abroad. Tim's monograph "SitesISights" was published in 2007 and his fine art work is held in various private collections. Tim lives in Copenhagen where he teaches photography and pursues new projects.

Mats Petersson

"Firewatch is my latest project. I'm not a nature photographer, per se, but an opportunity came one day for me to visit a controlled forest fire not far from my home. Fire, of course, is one of the ancient worlds' "four elements." No forest without fire: no life without fire: no world without fire. Once man learned to create and control fire, civilization developed. Man could cook and eat foods that were previously impossible. Fire was light, warmth and safety. Like many others, I have always been fascinated with fire.

Trailing the forest rangers with my Hasselblad, I entered a new world. The fire, raging just meters in front of me, created a surreal environment. The sunlight, smoke and heat captivated me. I was under a spell shooting these images. I have never experienced anything like it. Looking at these pictures now, I still feel the raw emotion and power from that day. For me, fire evokes complex questions about our origins, the power of nature, and the future of our planet."--Mats Petersson

Working exclusively with a Hasselblad camera, Swedish photographer Mats' portrait work and reportage have taken him on assignment worldwide. He is the recipient of several grants and scholarships from various Swedish Arts foundations. His photographs have been exhibited internationally, published widely, and his fine art work is held in several private collections.

A working artist all of his life, Mats still comes back to the work of Diane Arbus for artistic inspiration, and as he says, "In times of uncertainty, Arbus is my compass."--Mats Petersson mats.pe

Natalie Obermaier

"I find my muse behind the mystery of youth. I approach this muse cautiously, like an anthropologist lost, but hunting, in a suburban backyard with a snaking hose and retreating black dog. I place my subject into the light and then direct by not directing. My method is more of a witnessing – my technique more of an intuition. If my camera is conspicuous, spontaneity is lost and the image becomes crafted. Instead I stand waiting for the genius in them that shows me that essence of innocence. I am collecting flashes of vulnerability that reveal in us a relation to a child who, unknowingly, understands all we seek to discover. I ask of them only to be children.

Living in Los Angeles has imbued in me the idea that every patch of sunlight can be a stage. The characters, though, have to be chosen carefully, and while my casting process is instinctual, I connect to them via place, and my faith that the story will come. The overabundant sun tortures one who wants clouds for depth and tone, subtlety and threat. But grass will grow between the cracks in a sun-blasted sidewalk. If I'm lucky, if I'm ready, if my intuition serves me – then I unveil its truths and tell my story."--Natalie Obermaier
