The province of Quebec in Canada has a stunning raw beauty, shaped by the interplay of water and mountains. The Fjord du Saguenay was formed by the eroding power of a huge glacier, the St. Lawrence river and the sea sculpted the Gaspésie peninsula. This enthralling landscape inspired me to make a series that highlights the interplay of water and mountains.

Johannes Bosgra (b. 1979, NL) has travelled to the most desolate places on earth from a young age to create his contemplative work, from Antarctica to Alaska. He is selected as GUP New Dutch Photography Talent 2020. Bosgra explores the links between classical music and visual art. He has collaborated with composers and musicians such as Philip Glass, Maarten van Veen, Ralph van Raat and Feico Deutekom to create gesamtkunstwerke of visual art and classical music. Bosgras work has been exhibited internationally in a.o. Miami, Düsseldorf, Amsterdam and Rotterdam.
