I start shooting stills in the mid 90s. The interest for film, music videos and cinematography came from MTV and shows like Party Zone and AMP. At the time Orbital, Bjork, The Future Sound of London and The Prodigy made a huge impact as well as reading fashion and music magazines like I-D, Dazed, and Mixmag. They where the ones for me in the 90s who opened up a whole new world!
The photography and film carrier stretched back to mid -2000 with more than 200 commercials and clients like Jaguar / Microsoft / Burger King / Volvo / Ikea / H&M etc. High budget future films and tv-dramas as 'Real Humans, Wallander, Arne Dahl, Beck and ’The hundred year old man’ are just a few. The work has primary been as 1st Ac but also as Dop and camera operator at future films and tv-drama productions.
Music has always been close to my heart and made me look further into the world of art, photography, film and fashion. With a handful of records released, “Thoverstam” productions have had support from legendary artists like Laurent Garnier, Josh Wink, Terrence Dixon, Dj 3000, Anthony Shakir, and Dan Curtin.
Upcoming exhibitions, collaborations, art and photography TBA.
