Erik Johansson on Impossible Photography

Erik Johansson on Impossible Photography

on Feb 12th 2012 with 2 comments

Just because you didn’t get to go to that awesome photography conference doesn’t mean that you can’t learn something from the pros! Occasionally, we’ll be featuring a recommended photography lecture or interview on Phototuts+.

In the editorial world, we call what Erik Johansson does photo illustration. It can be more simply described as art. He takes multiple photos of different subjects and combines them to create fascinating images. Sometimes ironic or funny and sometimes more poignant, Johansson tries to capture ideas and not just moments. Learn about his process in a recent TED presentation.

I was raised in the suburbs of Cincinnati, Ohio. After high school, I left for Western Kentucky University where I obtained degrees in photojournalism and cultural anthropology. I am currently employed by CityBeat, an arts and entertainment weekly in Cincinnati. The work I am doing here is very rewarding and I suspect it will continue to be. I am available for freelance work in all areas of photography.
