The Swedish photographer Julia Hetta graduated from the Gerrit Rietveld Academie in Amsterdam in 2004. Her work has since then been shown in exhibitions and publications worldwide. Julia Hetta's photography displays a poetic quietude and often embraces surrealism in both subtle and direct ways. While her color work, perhaps more known to a broader audience, has a painterly quality largely centered around the nordic light; her black and white photographs do not fear the very dark, the very black.
