The past 20 years have seen a shift in Icelandic photography from postmodern aesthetics towards a more phenomenological perspective that explores the relationship between subjective and affective truth on the one hand, and the outside world on the other hand. Rather than telling a story about the world as it is or as the photographer wants it to appear, the focus is on communicating with the world, and with the viewer. The photograph is seen as a creative medium that can be used to reflect how we experience and make sense of the world, or how we are and dwell in the world. In this paper, I introduce the theme of poetic storytelling in the context of contemporary photography in Iceland and other Nordic Countries. Poetic storytelling is a term I have been developing to describe a certain lyrical way to use a photograph as a narrative medium in reaction to the climate crisis and to a general lack of relation to oneself and to the world in times of increased acceleration in the society. In my article I analyze works by a few leading Icelandic photographers (Katrín Elvarsdóttir, Heiða Helgadóttir and Hallgerður Hallgrímsdóttir) and put them in context with works by artists from Denmark (Joakim Eskildsen, Christina Capetillo and Astrid Kruse Jensen), Sweden (Helene Schmitz) and Finland (Hertta Kiiski) artists within the frame of poetic storytelling. Poetic storytelling is about a way to use a photograph as a narrative medium in an attempt to grasp a reality which is neither fully objective nor subjective, but rather a bit of both.

当代摄影中的诗歌叙事。冰岛和其他北欧国家/地区精选艺术家作品中与自然的关系和日常生活的诗意
在过去的20年中,冰岛摄影从后现代美学转向一种更加现象学的视角,这种视角一方面探讨主观和情感真理之间的关系,另一方面探讨外界之间的关系。与其说一个真实的世界或摄影师希望它出现的故事,不如说它是与世界以及与观众交流的重点。这张照片被视为一种创意媒介,可以用来反映我们如何体验和理解世界,或者我们如何生活在世界上。在本文中,我将在冰岛和其他北欧国家的当代摄影背景下介绍诗歌叙事的主题。诗歌叙事是我一直在开发的一种术语,用于描述一种将某种照片用作叙事媒介的抒情方式,以应对气候危机以及在社会加速发展时普遍缺乏与自己和世界的联系。在我的文章中,我分析了几位冰岛著名摄影师(KatrínElvarsdóttir,HeiðaHelgadóttir和HallgerðurHallgrímsdóttir)的作品,并将它们与丹麦(Joakim Eskildsen,Christina Capetillo和Astrid Kruse Jensen),瑞典(Helene Schmitz)的艺术家的作品联系起来。诗意叙事框架内的芬兰艺术家(Hertta Kiiski)。诗意的故事讲述是一种使用照片作为叙事媒介的方式,试图抓住一个既不是完全客观也不是主观的现实,而是两者兼而有之。
