‘Memultung’ means Magnificent’ in Kalaallisut, the major Greenlandic language. And how magnificent is this astonishing, giant piece of glacier with its extraordinary, natural arch. Formed millennia ago and then drifting out to the Ocean. We approached with care and with use of the boat’s tender, sought out the most remarkable angles. This was taken in 2019, sailing up the west coast of Greenland on a very personal photo-expedition like no other. Our boat was an old Herring Logger, around 100 feet long and built over 100 years ago in Holland. Her rigging is as traditional as it gets. The calm, outstanding skipper did all he could to ensure I could get the pictures, which included giving me almost complete freedom with the dinghy. It was one of the most wonderful, exciting, visually extraordinary shoots I have ever been on. My Greenland collection is meticulously created on heavyweight Canson Infinity Rag Photographique 310 GSM by a highly experienced and dedicated Director of the UK Fine Art Trade Guild to ensure the very cleanest of whites, the deepest shadows and perfect mid-tones. As Canson say: ‘Infinity Rag Photographique is a 100% cotton museum grade white Fine Art and photo paper. The exceptional smooth white tone is achieved during manufacturing by introducing natural minerals to the process. It has been developed to address the need for continued longevity requirements in the Digital Fine Art market. Rag Photographique offers a unique extra smooth surface with a sensual feel. It also provides one of the highest achievable Dmax [a measure of the deepest black tone] currently available on the market, making it ideal for fine art photography as well as fine art printmaking.' Each Limited Edition print is numbered, signed on the verso by me and fully certified by the Fine Art printer.

Martin Barraud is an award winning conceptual and fine art photographer whose work has featured in 14 D&AD Awards, including two highly-prestigious Yellow Pencils. His advertising commissions include international brands such as Boehringer Ingelheim and he helped create the superbrand that Investec became with his photoshoots of Zebras for over a decade. With many years experience shooting all over the world, Martin is as content creating a single image over several days as he is in taking on a photo-adventure over weeks or months. Over the last few years Martin has evolved his creative career to encompass installation art and he was the artist who in 2016 created the iconic There But Not There project – its name, Tommy and the seated silhouettes installation, the last of which went on to be installed in over 4,000 communities nationally in the UK in 2018. The Tommy has gone on to become an iconic figure of Remembrance in its own right and is now owned and used by Royal British Legion Industries in its logo. In 2019 Martin created the D-Day Bootprint Installation on Slapton Sands to help commemorate the 75th anniversary of the 749 American service personnel lost off the beach in a D-Day rehearsal in April 1944. More recently his jointly owned micro agency WeMake.YouThink was commissioned by Prostate Cancer UK to create a ‘travelling’ Memorial hosting the names of those lost to the disease, sponsored by those they left behind. It has been received with great warmth by those suffering their loss so acutely.
