FOTOGRAFIER FRÅN BOKEN HÄVVI = SJÄLVKLART

Jag hittade restaurang Hävvi i Glen mest av en slump på nätet och när jag läste menyn, som både kändes genuin och poetisk, bestämde jag mig för att åka dit. Väl framme imponerades jag av fantastiska smakupplevelser som egenfångad fjällfisk och tempererad Suovas. Och när Elaine berättade om hantverket bakom olika samiska specialiteter ville jag bara veta mer. Jag ställde mig också frågan; Varför har jag aldrig hört talas om samisk mat tidigare?

Året var 2011 och vårt första möte resulterade i flera reportage som publicerades i bland annat tidningarna Kupé och Gourmet. Idag har Hävvi i Glen fått utmärkelser i White Guide åtta år i rad tillsammans med och en rad andra aktörer, nu senast från Gastronomiska Akademien.

2016 träffade jag Elaine igen under produktionen av “Smak på Sápmi”, en bok som initierades av Slow Food Sápmi och skapades tillsammans med samiska kockar. Den fick stor uppmärksamhet och utsågs bland annat till “Bäst i världen” i två kategorier av Gourmand World Cookbook Awards.

I fjol hörde Elaine av sig igen och berättade att Sametinget bestämt sig för att bidra till hennes drömprojekt, en kokbok som följer samernas åtta årstider. Hon ville att jag skulle ta bilderna till boken och resultatet, “Hävvi = Självklart, Sydsamisk mat tolkad av Elaine Asp”, tog ett år att producera.

Utställningen består av 41 bilder, ca 10 st visas på Stockholms Matmarknad
och ca 30 st på Sturehof.

Upplagan på varje bild är endast fem exemplar I varje storlek på Fine Art Print Aquarella i storlekarna 50x70 eller 70x100. De levereras signerade utan ram. Certifikat bifogas vid köp.

Fotografierna kostar 4 000 kr eller 6 000 kr beroende av storlek.

Frakt eller bud tillkommer. Leveranstid ca 1-2 veckor.

PHOTOGRAPHY FROM THE BOOK HÄVVI = NATURALLY

I found the restaurant Hävvi i Glen mostly by coincidence online, and when I read the menu, which both felt genuine and poetic, I decided to go there. Once there, I was impressed by fantastic tastes of the self-caught mountain fish and open-fire Suovas. And when Elaine told me about the craft behind various Sámi specialties, I had to know more. I also asked, “Why have I never heard of Sámi food before?”

This was 2011 and our first meeting resulted in several articles published in the magazines Kupéand Gourmet, among others. Today, Hävvi i Glen has received awards in White Guide eight years running and from a number of other industry organizations, most recently from Gastronomiska Akademien.

In 2016 I met Elaine again during the production of Taste of Sápmi, a cookbook initiated by Slow Food Sápmi and created together with Sámi chefs. The book was a big hit and was named by the Gourmand World Cookbook Awards as “Best in the World” in two categories.

Last year, Elaine contacted me again and explained that the Sámi Parliament had decided to contribute to her dream project, a cookbook that follows the eight seasons of the Sámi. She wanted me to take the photos for the book and the result, Hävvi = Naturally: South Sámi food interpreted by Elaine Asp, took a year to produce.

The exhibition consists of 41 photos, about 10 of which are displayed at the Stockholm Food Market and about 30 at Sturehof.

Each photo has been reproduced in five copies on Fine Art Print Aquarella in sizes 50x70 cm or 70x100 cm. They come signed and unframed. A certificate is included in the purchase.

The photos cost SEK 4,000 or SEK 6,000 depending on size.

Shipping or courier is extra. Delivery time about 1–2 weeks.

More about the photographer Bianca Brandon-Cox:
Bianca literally grew up in the darkroom of her maternal grandmother, documentary photographer Ingrid Landberg.Ingrid was the only female member of the Gävle Photo Club, where she and three colleagues started Bildgrupp Gavle. The four, who, among other places, travelled to Ireland, England and Poland for photos, received several awards for their work.

Today, Bianca has worked behind the camera for over twenty years, and ten years ago she decided to focus on food and drink as well as the people behind the food. In 2014, Bianca was a major contributor to Taste of Sápmi: Sámi Cuisine – Tradition and Innovation into the Future.The cookbook was named by the Gourmand World Cookbook Awards as “Best in the World” in two categories and second best in “The Best Cookbooks of the last 20 years” in its category Local Cuisine.

At the same time that Taste of Sápmi was being produced, Bianca learned that her father inherited a box of photographs, films and diaries from his father Hugh Brandon-Cox. Image her surprise when she discovered that her grandfather, who was an artist, photographer and filmmaker in England, had lived with and documented the life of Norwegian Sámi for seven years in the 1960s. His photos depict all aspects of everyday life: reindeer being transported on rafts, children playing in beautiful landscapes and women butchering animals.He describes his meeting with the Norwegian Sámi in the book The Trail of the Arctic Nomads, and his unedited films about their lives have been shown both on English and Swedish TV.

Bianca is currently producing photos for several cookbooks, and when she is done, she hopes to have time to explore her grandfather’s box of treasures more. Her dream is to produce a book and an exhibition based on this unique material.
