Johan Willner: Wind Upon the Face of Waters

Wind Upon the Face of Waters deals with the great questions of religion and faith, from a perspective to be brought up in a modern, political and strongly secular society, during the seventies and eighties.

It is a personal story that also reflects on the photographic method, Johan Willner combines the black and white photographs with an integrated essay in which the two parts follow each other and work both independently and jointly in the photographic and textual narrative. A combination that contributes to an extension of the experience of the photograph.

In 2015 Wind Upon the Face of Waters was awarded Best Portfolio at Landskrona Photo Festival, Sweden (August 2016) and the winner of the Spine International Dummy Award.
