Ragnar Axelsson

Ragnar Axelsson is an impressive guide who illuminates the fascinating and often challenging relationships between people, animals, and nature in the extreme regions of the Arctic. The photographer Ragnar Axelsson, who has been active in Greenland, Iceland, and Siberia for over 40 years, presents his unique black-and-white images in this work. These photographs not only capture the beauty of the landscapes but also depict the fundamental human experience in a changing environment. With the title "Where the World is Melting," Axelsson addresses the impact of climate change on the way of life of people and wildlife in these remote areas. The book includes remarkable series such as "Faces of the North," "Glacier," and "Last Days of the Arctic," which encourage the reader to reflect on the challenges and changes in the Arctic.
