Birthe Piontek currently online at Women in Photography has a striking body of work about finding yourself in the North, an exploration of a place spiritually and physically.
The Idea of North: Individuation is a recurring theme in my photographic work: the ways people struggle to belong yet be different at the same time. Sometimes, people’s quests for identity lead them to leave the beaten path, and take the road less traveled. And for them, the quest for self-discovery becomes a journey in every sense of the word. - Birthe Piontek
