Necromancer features photos from Greenland by Inuuteq Storch

Necromancer features photos from Greenland by Inuuteq Storch

 


For almost as long as I've been involved in the world of photography, I've had my eye on work coming out of Denmark. Early in my career this meant paying attention to photographers such as Nicolai Fuglsig, Jan Dago, Erik Refner and Joachim Ladefoged, all of whom were in one way or another part of the Danish school of photographers.

It was too many years ago for me to want to acknowledge it. But the truth is that after all these years, the work done in Denmark is still fresh and inspiring to me. In recent years this has translated into the work of Jacob Aue Sobol, and now the incredibly talented Inuuteq Storch.

Storch was chosen to represent Denmark at this year's 60th Venice Biennale. This is very exciting to me for several reasons. Firstly, I love his work; I published an article about his book Keepers of the Ocean two years ago right here.

Second, it's always a pleasure to see someone you admire also attract the attention of people much more important than you! It gives me great satisfaction to see his success.

Today on In Sight we took a look at an excerpt from his latest book, Necromancer (Marrow Press, 2024). Like much of his work, this book focuses on his native Greenland.

The work was carried out during the dark days of the pandemic. Storch uses stark black and white images that give off an unsettling mood. And if you remember (how could you not?) those pandemic days, you will remember the feeling of uncertainty and dread that enveloped the world. Well, Greenland and its people were no different from the rest of us.

In many ways, Necromancer is like a novel. Specifically, for me, it contains remnants of black and white neo-noir comics like, say, Frank Miller's Sin City. The work of photographers from the Japanese Provoke magazine era is probably even more relevant.

The feeling of unease also evokes a bit of an occult sensation, which makes sense: Storch's publisher even says, of the work he was creating at this time, that Storch's fascination with the occult and connection between the physical and spiritual worlds therefore developed. his title, Necromancer.

Storch's resulting work is a captivating, mysterious, beautiful and strangely lush universe in which we can wander and marvel.

And like all great art, the universe it creates opens up to us, generously giving us the opportunity to conjure up many different narrative arcs. In other words, Storch has created a universe not only for himself, which he can inhabit and explore, but also for us.

You can find out more about Storch's work on his website, here. And you can buy the book here.
