Simon Cederquist is currently one of Sweden's most exciting photographers. Through his unique way of taking photos he has made a name for himself in the commercial world of photography.

Instead of waiting for the picture to come to him, Simon creates places and moments using his imagination. Behind each photo is a profound thought that he allows the viewer to analyse alone.

This inclusive creative process separates Simon from the traditional image of a photographer, pushing him more towards the profile of a modern artist. There is a huge amount of personal involvement in everything he creates, and he doesn't shy away from intertwining into his work the more complex questions about life in modern society.
