Went to see an exhibit at Färgfabriken today, photography by Hannah Modigh, Indian-born and living in Sweden. The photography series is from a worn-down community in Virginia. Trashy beauty is sometimes more beautiful than beautiful beauty, or maybe it´s the feeling of staring into another person´s soul that creates the sense of beauty..?

Was flipping through some of the work of documentary photographer Paul Hansen today on Dagens Nyheter´s website (a major newspaper in Sweden) and wanted to share. Pictures below are from Kongo and Gaza – amazingly dramatic, compassionate images that leave you with no words. It´s good to be lost for words sometimes.
