Studio Visit: Sophie Mörner

TPP checks in with our favorite artists on their inspiration, work in progress and studio practice.

Sophie Mörner was born in 1976 in Stockholm, Sweden and attended New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts. Most often regarded for the founding of Capricious Magazine and later Capricious Publishing and Space, venues for presenting emerging fine art photography, Mörner is first a photographer herself. Her work blends idyllic elements of an imagined female utopia: individuals in bucolic, pastoral settings unencumbered by gender pressures, with aspects of contemporary portraiture and realism.

Sophie shares her inspiration along with a look into her studio, Capricious Space and a selection of images from her upcoming solo exhibition titled The Name of a Song.  The Name of a Song opens Friday, September 10th at Capricious Space.
