Metsä, the Finnish word for forest, is a selection of photographs from a project wherein Berntsen has set out to do an artistic documentation of the taiga, the landscape connecting the northern parts of Russia, Norway, Finland and Sweden. A flat landscape containing mainly marshland and coniferous forests. The book presents 60 black and white photographs from Northern Finland and Sweden, executed between 2013 and 2015 with a 16 x 21 cm large format camera. The book also has an essay by Jan-Erik Lundström, translated to Finnish, Sami and Russian.
Per Berntsen (b. 1953) is one of the veterans of photographic art in Norway and an important advocate for the medium's rise and acceptance on the local art scene. Berntsen was educated at Trent Polytechnic / Derby College of Art, England, during the second half of the 1970s and has actively exhibited since his debut in 1980 at Fotogalleriet (The Photography Gallery) in Oslo. His works can be found in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art in New York, Bibliothèque Nationale in Paris and The National Museum of Art, Architecture and Design in Oslo.
