Stephanie Wiegner - A Wintertime Incident
“A Wintertime Incident” explores the narration of an elaborate, multi-faceted imaginary story through the means of staged photography. Each photograph is a facet of the whole narrative, contributing to the plot, while at the same time focusing on an occurrence of its own. They are like film stills, moments frozen in time, and while all depicted elements collaborate to articulate the idea of the images, the story remains fragmental. Completion lies in the viewer’s hands.
Events unfold in the Swedish winter landscape, moving gradually into spring as the narrative progresses. There is a small village, populated by obscure stories, shadowy figures, sinister intentions and empty corners. There is family and there are friends, moving forward and staying behind.
The photographs were shot on 4x5 inch negative film with a large format camera from February 2011 to May 2011 in Stockholm and the Swedish countryside.
