Opening of Kristian Häggblom > Some Confused Men

Some Confused Men is a photographic series by Kristian Häggblom that explores the feeling of being overwhelmed in today’s chaotic world. Against the backdrop of political unrest, economic stress, environmental concerns and the strange return of Trump, the work follows the lives of men – including the artist – who openly express their confusion.

Through chaotic, cinema-inspired horizontal scrolls and more contemplative large-format images, this exhibition follows two tangential visual journeys: one to rescue a broken-down car with a friend, and another to visit the grave of legendary filmmaker Yasujirō Ozu. The result is a mix of the everyday and the mysterious, inviting viewers to find their own meaning amongst the mess.
