Martina Hoogland Ivanow is a director, photographer, and artist and has been active internationally since the mid-90s but has resided in Stockholm since 2002. Her working method revolves around the use of photography and film, but also more and more towards sculpture, sound, and light installations. The interest in opposites and human relations is common to all works. The process is primarily documentary and non-linearly associative, often through analog camera and darkroom techniques.

For her, working with photography and film has become an exploration of different behavioral patterns, a kind of approach to contemporary documentation where much of the process surrounding the documentary material is based on removing or changing information and perception through shadows, exposure, or various color filters. The interest lies in the limitation of the analog material, and it is precisely there that the negative and the darkroom work can be used as a specific visual expression.
