About The Artwork

Originally shot for a travel feature on the annual Sámi Reindeer Migration in 2010 but not used by the magazine. Following the annual Sámi Reindeer Migration in Lapland (Arctic Sweden). This image was taken midway through the migration. Having begun in beautiful crisp, clear sunlight, the reindeer race on in-spit of the worsening weather. It's an epic journey by any standards and a way of life for the remaining Sámi families, an ethnic minority spread across arctic Lapland. My aim is always to try and capture a moment of magic, transcending the everyday to express the epic nature of the migration, the feeling of otherworldliness that extreme cold and snow can bring, the power and energy of the reindeer herd and the beauty and isolation of the landscape in which the Sámi live and work. It was a privilege to experience the Sámi reindeer migration and to be with the family in their natural habitat and glimpse their ancient way of life which as with most nomadic peoples is now under threat.

Of his work Gary says; "I see my work as being in the Romantic tradition. My work has been described as cinema-graphic, otherworldly and emotionally charged. I love to take pictures, I'm interested in people, culture, society and a sense of place. I travel a lot and I am a romantic of sorts. I was once described as having a 19th Century sensibility. Maybe that is because I like nostalgia, found things and a touch of fantasy. My aim is to find magic in the everyday."
