« When I photograph, I try to use my instincts as much as possible. It is when pictures are unconsidered and irrational that they come to life; that they evolve from showing to being. In this process I will not only use my camera to take pictures, but also as an instrument to create intimacy and closeness in a poetic, direct way. » Jacob Aue Sobol.
The exhibition Still with you, on view at the Magnum Gallery, brings a diverse array of Jacob Aue Sobol’s work, starting from his earlier photobooks, Sabine and I, Tokyo, up to yet unpublished images. From the Greenlandic seal-hunters to his native Denmark, Still with you threads series of forlorn and intimate moments, shared for an instant in front of a camera and left for the viewer to dwell deeper into.
