Biography:

Per Bak Jensen is a Danish landscape photographer born on April 22, 1949. He graduated from The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen and worked as an associate professor at the same institution until 2009. His desolate images of nature or industrial sites often convey an almost metaphysical impression. Jensen's unusual subjects include corn stubble, twigs in the snow, or a few isolated rocks. He is always attentive to angle, light, and exposure but never manipulates his photographs once they have been taken.
