Kristoffer Axen: The Rabbit Hole, 2009
“I experienced the tangible sensation of a collective state of waiting. Not a waiting that has its known motif, but an indefinite lingering, quietly swimming beneath our thoughts like an unsolved puzzle with pieces we don't recognize. The Rabbit Hole, being a clear embodiment of this mood, is the reluctant invitation to that state, to that specific world, where the unspecified exists outside our peripheral.”—Kristoffer Axén
The Rabbit Hole, by Kristoffer Axén, was featured in reGeneration 2: Tomorrow’s Photographers Today, the second book in Aperture's series turning the spotlight to the next generation of potential star photographers. The language created by Axén relates to cinema. His world—composed of digital tools—is depicted in almost monochrome tones and gives the impression of being a non-place in a non-time. The interaction between the scenes represented and the viewer's imagination gives way to fiction. The series, which evokes more of a nightmare than reality, enables him to question the world in which he lives.
