STHLM ‘go away to come home’

Award-winning photographer Jannica Honey traded living in Sweden for an Edinburgh Uni photography course and the pleasures of Leith docks almost a decade ago. However, as her latest exhibition shows, the ideas of dislocation, remembrance and comparison continue to play on her mind. STHLM ‘go away to come home’ includes photographs of Honey’s family and friends in the UK and Sweden, often with eerie or confrontational, as well as tender, overtones. Despite being a fashion photographer her work is, thankfully, much more substance than style, full of personal insight and thoughtful contrasts.

STHLM ‘go away to come home’, photography by Jannica Honey, Zedart Gallery, Edinburgh. Thu 4-Sat 13 Feb. Mon-Fri 10am-5.30pm; Sat 10.30am-5pm.

..That was a long time coming, Super Jannica! Not so sure of journalism that suggests fashion doesn't have substance! That is just bad research!
