Respect for others is important to Carina, both in her work as a social worker and in her photography. With her camera as a constant companion, she has embarked on many adventures over the years, always valuing moments and encounters.
By chance, Carina ended up in Dublin in 2011. She appreciates Ireland’s beautiful landscapes, but it is the people who draw her back. While she is not a frequent pub-goer in her hometown of Skellefteå, she has explored the pub culture in Ireland — experiencing everything from the calm atmosphere of friends meeting at lunchtime to nights filled with music and dancing. And her camera is always with her.
Carina is both a participant and an observer in her photography. It often begins with photographs of strangers, but her curiosity about the people she meets allows her to get close and hear their stories. Fragments of these stories will be shared in her talk, “Moments of Life.”
Ireland holds a special place in Carina’s heart. In addition to a planned book project about one of the pubs, she has several other ideas she hopes to bring to life.
