Overview

Though a residency in the Aizu region of Japan, Julia Hetta presents a saga as true as it is poetic: a Japanese man seeks the innermost spirit of Art, makes the long journey to Sweden – and ends up back in Japan.
Julia Hetta is a Swedish photographer known for her serene, painterly compositions. Emphasizing natural light and long exposure times, she instils her subjects with a sense of quiet power.
