Another Language
Marten Lange
Tagged: Photography
In his first major publication, Swedish artist Mårten Lange presents a melange of images documenting flora, fauna and natural phenomena in a signature monochrome style, developing a cryptic index of nature. With recurring shapes, patterns and textures, Lange democratises his subjects — from commonplace objects such as rocks and fish, to sublime portraits of lightning and mountainscapes — so that each picture elucidates a sense of simplicity and clarity, contrasting with the book as an enigmatic whole. Another Language arrives thanks to the brilliant Mack Books (London).
