Erik Jäderholm
- Vit (a vécu) à Sweden
My name is Erik Jäderholm (t is pronounced in the same way as when you try to stick your toungh out and say blääää) and i am 54 years old.
My homebase is in a suburb south of Stockholm, Sweden.
I grew up whit cameras but not whit pictures.
My father did have all the equipment you ever can think about but he never jused them.
He was not a collector or something, he just kept them in a big locked cabinet.
Sounds a little bit strange and i don´t know why it was that way, perhaps he didn´t have the time, the nerv or the selfconfidence to use them.
After a long time of nagging i borrowed a 6x6 camera, start taking pictures and after a time whit even more nagging he put some heavy curtins on the
kitchen window and helped me develop my early work.
After that i was stucked on everything that included the word photography.
I dreamed about become a photographer and tryed hard whit stuff from the 1940´s.
It was a time of learning in the old school and i don´t know if i could pick up anything useful to be honest but one day i got my first modern camera and it did open doors i couldn´t belive was there.
Then i got married, and the dreams of see my results hangin on gallerywalls all over the world was put on a delay for many years.
But for a year a go my toughts came back to me again and i started to try to remember everything i have tought me during my younger years.
Everything have changed to the better i must say, the problem is that i have old knowledge in a new world so you have to patience whit me now that i
try to stumble in to this new and better world.
