If you're an artist, what kind of art do you make?
Photography
I am...
Kristin Lyseggen has recently moved back to her native country, after six years in the UK and a few months on a deserted island in Finland.
She has completed a number of projects in Morocco, Romania, UK, Norway, Germany, Slovakia and Thailand including an in-depth study of the transvestite community, the urban cowboys in the West Midlands and the Jesus Army in England. In 2004 she won the Louise Anne Ryland award for art and design.
Kristin has recently sold the rights to use four of her pictures from the series "Princess of Walsall" to the new American movie "Birds of America" (2008) starring Matthew Perry and Hilary Swank.
She has exhibited her photographs in various places including Chulalongkorn University in Bangkok, AOP Gallery in London, Millennium Point and at the Rotunda in Birmingham. She is now producing a new body of work about people from the age of 19 to 84 years in Scandinavia who have had - or will be having a sex change.
About my artwork
Kristin's aim is to capture, involve and learn from her "photo subjects" and get spontaneous and accurate pictures of individuals and people within communities, and to represent human social and cultural issues such as transvestism and transsexualism. These people have to live beyond a standard lifestyle, but cannot as yet be accepted or feel safe. Not even in their own, local environment.
