How can photography make environmental change and the vulnerability of nature visible?

Meet photographers and artists Ivar Hagren, Weronika Bela, and Emanuel Cederqvist, all recipients of the Hasselblad Foundation’s Nature Photography Fellowship. Through long-term photographic projects depicting industrial environments, diseased trees, and transformed landscapes, they share how photography can reveal nature’s fragility in a time shaped by environmental change.

The evening begins with short presentations of the artists’ work, followed by a panel discussion moderated by Andréas Hagström, Archivist and Library Manager at the Hasselblad Foundation.
