Maren Klemp | on Tumblr (Norway)
Maren Klemp is a fine art photographer living and working in Oslo, Norway. Her goal is to raise awareness of mental health through her work. She considers her photography to be a plunge into the darker sides of the human mind, and many of her images are visual representations of conditions associated with mental illness. The pictures tell about those who are gripped by darkness, isolation and sadness, and about relationships with close family. They tell about the lack of belonging, to live in a separate world that few or no others can enter or understand. It’s about the fog that comes creeping, which overpowers and paralyzes, the invisible disease.
Maren Klemp has had several exhibitions in Oslo, Norway and is the co-author of the book “Between Intervals” together with the American photographer and professor dr. José Escobar.
