Fjord is a one-night exhibition in which the general expectations of a photography exhibition will be broken and the viewer will be able to directly interact with the photographs. This exhibition features the work of 66 photographers from the Fjord collective. The photographs will be displayed in an un-mounted, un-bound fashion in order to promote direct interaction between the viewers and the work.
Exhibiting photographers are:
Dustin Aksland, Nicole Akstein, Mary Amor, Michelle Arcila, Daniel Augschöll, Mikaylah Bowman, Coley Brown, Alana Celii, Céline Clanet, Gerald Edwards III, Jon Feinstein, Bea Fremderman, Dana Gentile, Gustav Gustafsson, Jessica Hans, Paul Herbst, Nicola Kast, Clare Kelly, Jonathan Knobel, Andrew Laumann, Shane Lavalette, Bryan Lear, Miranda Lehman, Seth Lower, Sophie Lvoff, Michael Marcelle, Alexander Martinez, Lydia Anne McCarthy, Andrew McComb, Mark McKnight, Ye Rin Mok, Chad Muthard, Erin Nelson, Erika Neola, Jennifer Niederhauser, Kaarel Nurk, Grady O’Connor, Ulijona Odisarija, Nils Orth, Cristina Maria Oswald, Justin James Reed, Jessica Roberts, Lazaro Rodriguez, Tamara Rosenblum, Bryan Schutmaat, Daniel Shea, Brea Souders, Jake Stangel, Will Steacy, Tim Steer, Sean Stewart, Joseph Tripi, Brad Troemel, Jesper Ulvelius, Elo Vazquez, Kamden Vencill, Corrie Vierregger, Greg Wasserstrom, Shen Wei, Alice Wells, Ian Whitmore, Mark Wickens, Jessica Williams, Grant Willing, Sarah Wilmer, and Davin Youngs

Meet Waradise is your happy hour.
Meet Waradise is your mind blown.
Meet Waradise is your livingroom.
Meet Waradise is your haunt.
Meet Waradise is where everybody knows your name.
