NICOLAI HOWALT

Born 1970. Lives and works in Copenhagen. Educated at Fatamorgana - The Danish School of Photography.

Nicolai Howalt’s photographic works reference to the tradition of documentarism typically based in specific environments. “Boxer” (2003) was a photographic portrait project about young boys shot before and after a match. In 2001 Howalt presented the series "3X1" about a family living in a surburban counsil flat.

His on going project “How to Hunt” initiated in 2005 is made together with Trine Søndergaard. It balances between fascinated studies of the phenomenon of hunting on the one hand, and a series of beautiful landscapes heralding back to Romanticism on the other.
