I present to you the final image of the “foundation” series! Like all the other pictures in the series, it is a self portrait, also featuring one of my clones. This is the first time I shot myself and the background seperately. This abandoned bridge has been on my mind for […]

It feels importatnt to me to close this chapter and move on to different things. There is one more picture that I want to make and then the series will be complete. This concept has been in my mind from […]

I chose this as the title for my most recent addition to the “foundation” series. It’s been too long since I made a picture for this series! I have decided that I want to complete it soon and it is going to be my […]

]]> 547 tug of war https://nickiupstairs.com/tug-war/ Fri, 01 Aug 2014 15:01:30 +0000 http://nickiupstairs.com/?p=506 Tug of war is an ancient game, once included even in the Olympics. For me it’s a memory from childhood, when we used to gather and play. I was looking for a way to symbolize the fights we give with our own self as an opponent, so I thought this game would suit my purpose. […]

A few days ago, I launched my official website, which I am really happy about, yet somehow uncomfortable. I’ve designed several websites for others over the years, but having one for myself feels strange. I like how it has turned out, although there are still minor adjutments to be made. All in good time. […]

I think the title says it all, this is my view on narcissism, a surrealistic reflection of a face that has gone blank. The image is another addition to my on-going series “foundation”, revolving around the relationship with ourselves. When I was planning this […]

Like the previous one, this is part of my series about how we relate to ourselves, which I have decided to name “foundation”. Soon I will make a new post telling you all about it! I think the theme is quite obvious here and the title is also very descriptive. […]
