Vega Archipelago - photographer Sven PRIM explores surreal wonders for Norwegian World Heritage Vegaøyan

In 2004, the Vega archipelago was the first cultivated land in Norway to be added to the UNESC list of mankind's Natural and Cultural Heritage. The archipelago comprises 6500 islands, Holme und Schären, distributed across 1037 km2. Modern man has settled there for over 10,000 years. Appointed by UNESCO — Vegaøyan photographer Sven PRIM was able to romp to his hearts desire for the customer and let his imagination run wild. His creation is a mashup of Avatar and the Seven Wonders of the World.

Sven Prim describes himself as a real technology geek who loves to create strange and surreal situations. Something clearly visible in his image creation, which he himself has given the epithet manipulated pictures with a twist. He is equally skilled both as a photographer and a retoucher and discovered early the fantastic opportunity that post production can present for creating an extra dimension in images. Many people think that a photograph´s truth is compromised in post but Sven doesn´t agree at all: "The concept of truth is completely subjective. I believe that a picture is always manipulated, regardless of how it is taken. When the photographer selects the time and place to snap a picture, the truth is already being bent. I am very up-front about how my pictures are created." Find more artwork :  Agent Molly & Co.
