Anna’s “Long Way Home” series depicts Värmland, a province in Sweden (which is the home to Anna’s paternal side of the family). In her images, fog acts as an allegory for the murkiness of memory, as Anna revisits these sites to explore her heritage.

The Long Way Home explores the lush countryside of Värmland, a historical province in Western Sweden. Moller spent her summers there as a child and has been photographing its surroundings for the past five years. Her landscapes, shrouded in a dense fog and dotted with the outlines of trees, convey a sense of wonder at approaching a familiar place but seeing it afresh for the first time. Anna says of the area, 'If you walk the land, you can feel swells of quiet, seas of forests, and rivers made of glass. If you look closely, you can see the stories of my family.'
About the Artist
Anna Moller captures dream-like ethereal landscapes where the subjects and the space between the subjects themselves are of equal importance.
