About

'Illuminations started in 2002 when a relationship was slowly falling apart. While trying to save it, we rented a large stylish apartment in Stockholm, and then later one in Arles, France, hoping that a change of scene would have a positive effect. The new spaces made the distance between us more acute, and the inevitable break even more obvious. The ritual of making one photograph each night became crucial to me. I left the camera shutter open for 3 to 8 hours in a darkened bedroom, and as the morning light arrived I interrupted the exposure. It is a private journal, documenting time and memory, where present meets past.' Florence Montmare was born in Vienna and grew up in Stockholm, raised by a Swedish mother and Cretan father. She graduated with an MBA in Innovation and Design Management from Linnaeus University in Sweden and worked for several years as a creative consultant in advertising, before traveling South America with her Nikon F-301. She has worked with international creative agencies, artist Sam Samore and clients such as Sony Music, Maybelline, Nivea and Harley Davidson. She currently creates content for print and online media, while lecturing at universities and showing at galleries and museums internationally.
