A collection of around 150 portraits made between 2012 and 2022 by the Danish photographer Fryd Frydendahl, whose sitters include famous and unknown people as well as the artist herself. Frydendahl breaks the conventions of portrait-based photography and leads the viewer into an intimate space where grief, loneliness, identity, friendship and family ties come up. The pictures hold fragility, enthusiasm, innocence, naivety, beauty and awkwardness, and she involves herself, her family and friends in the work with an intuitive, attentive approach. In the introduction, Elizabeth Renstrom traces a throughline of sincerity and freedom from the oldest portrait to the work being made today.
