Tatu Gustafsson’s first book consists of 200 self-portraits taken with weather monitoring cameras. Since Gustafsson started making self-portraits in 2012, he has concentrated on an alternative approach to photography and sought to question issues of authorship associated with traditional photography. Early on, he discovered that Finland’s traffic and weather cameras snap a picture every twelve minutes and store it online for 24 hours. Gustafsson embarked on a journey by car across the country, positioning himself in front of over 700 outdoor cameras and embracing the lack of control inherent in this process. The results are haunting images that capture the essence of solitude.
