Sanna Kannisto: Act of Flying Portfolio
Since 1997, Finnish rising star Sanna Kannisto has spent several months per year living alongside biologists in the rainforests of Latin America. Adopting elements of her companions’ scientific methods, she developed her own form of visual research, extending her depictions of flora and fauna beyond the confines of the natural sciences. Breaking away from the conventions of nature photography, which typically presents specimens in isolation, devoid of context, Kannisto’s work addresses the acts of staging and image-making. With her gentle humor, she recognizes and utilizes the constraints of science and art alike, investigating the concept of truth in photography to challenge how we view and “know” the natural world.
This portfolio coincided with her solo exhibition at the Aperture Gallery and the Aperture publication of Kannisto’s first major monograph, Fieldwork.
