Jean Baptiste Fernandez
Born in Toulouse, France, Jean Baptiste Fernandez began his culinary career at the age of thirteen, eventually finding in photography a vital counterbalance to the high-pressure environment of professional kitchens. Now based in Oslo, Norway, he uses his camera to capture moments of stillness and contemplation that stand in stark contrast to his daily professional life. His work is defined by a desire to freeze time, allowing him to express his inner world and reconnect with the freedom found in the natural landscape.
