Morten Saether

Morten Saether

The starting point for my photography is not f-stops, shutter speeds or exposure. These are purely left brain, camera variables. When I look at a subject I study it like a painter and decide what I want to create. My imagination takes over and I see what the object might look like. I see the object with my imagination. I call this Right Brain Photography.

Morten Saether is a freelance photographer and painter. He favours using mixed digital photography techniques to produce his work. He is also driven by a passion for exploring the social, cultural, and urban transformations of our contemporary world.

“Photography is often the essence of my Art. I also love traditional collages. So often my work consists of different photos put together in layers and presented in a new way, mostly abstract but sometimes with elements you can recognize.”

Alongside his self taught artistic practice, Morten has enjoyed an extensive professional career as an Art Director and Graphic Designer. Morten’s photography and paintings have been featured in exhibitions in Collioure/France, Barcelona/Spain, Berlin/Germany, London/UK, Budapest/Hungary, Fredrikstad, Horten and Oslo/Norway. Morten is keen to continue to exhibit his work throughout Europe. Morten resides in Oslo, Norway.
