Jag föddes med ett lyckligt hjärta
We are all powerless in the face of what is to come. None of us has control over the end. In some cases, we can postpone it, in others we can hasten its arrival, but we can never escape it.
In the work Jag föddes med ett lyckligt hjärta (I Was Born With a Happy Heart), Isak Uitto engages with the narrative potential of the object. Through still life photography, Uitto approaches objects, the body, power dynamics, impermanence, and the beauty of things. He seeks answers to how he can live with the knowledge that everything will die.
Isak Uitto is from Östersund, Jämtland.
