Photographer Jacob Aue Sobol: "My work is about what we have in common." | Louisiana Channel

"I'm always seeking the intimate moments with another person". With his raw and expressive black-and-white approach, Jacob Aue Sobol is able to get up close to the people he depicts. His photographs are deeply immersive and explore themes of vulnerability, intimacy and connectedness. "I walk up to people, look them in the eyes and tell them, I think you look interesting. I would like to share something with you, and I would like to make a portrait of you.
