Title: Immersed in stone
Description: 'Immersed in Stone - Black Ice', a book consisting of 53 mainly black and white photographs of mountains, rocks, snow and glaciers dark of black gravel. The pictures are taken along a multi-day walk outside of the Jotunheimen National Park, with no other purpose than to let the camera be as much as possible with the traveler's different visual and body impression in the face of a landscape that appears to be both sublime, monotonous, foreign and inexhaustible. Whether the landscape is a measure of aesthetic excitement or exaltation in Løkken's photographs, what is it? Løkken talks about bodily knowledge about the materiality of the object and the precariousness of the stone's stability and carrying capacity - to "experience the physical nature of the area."
