Jacob Aue Sobol is known for his expressive style of black-and-white photography.
"My pictures are about being human for better or worse, he says. I cannot imagine dealing with other themes. It is the core of my pictures that they ask questions about our existence and that they speak to our inner feelings."
Sobol's photographs of Greenland, Guatemala and Tokyo had won him numerous awards. In 2006, Sobol moved to Tokyo and shot a series of images that won the 2008 Leica European Publishers Award. His series, “I, Tokyo”, was published by Actes Sud (France), Apeiron (Greece), Dewi Lewis Publishing (Great Britain), Edition Braus (Germany), Lunwerg Editores (Spain) and Peliti Associati (Italy).
