Therese Öhrvall invites us to a distinctive world within her images, comprised of references to Swedish cinema, nostalgia, popular culture, Americana, camp, and most importantly; a signature command of composition and light.
Her carefully crafted universe appears suspended in time and features both real and constructed characters. She has a penchant for young romance, and notions of longing, hope, and desire.
