About
Jon Martin Austad (1985) is a Norwegian photographer from Tønsberg who graduated from Bilder Nordic School of Photography in Oslo in 2016. He works mostly with commercial assignments, but it’s his personal projects that reflects who he is as a photographer. He only works in black and white, with a wide range of tones, from almost black to almost white. His pictures are usually inspired by nature, illuminated by nature’s own light source; directly, reflected or in the lack of light. Austad’s main project over the last last years «Luminous» was exhibited at Muun Gallery in Oslo from February to April in 2017, this was Austad’s first solo exhibition
