Choki Lindberg, born in 1979, currently lives and works in Copenhagen, Denmark. Choki graduated from the Fatamorgana the Danish School of Art Photography, Copenhagen in 1997, and the International Center of Photography, New York in 1999. In 2006, she got her BFA from the Gerrit Rietveld Academy in Amsterdam. Choki’s photographs depict the tragedy and beauty of decay. Her empty interiors are void of human presence, yet traces of its inhabitants become visible through the deserted objects decorating these places. Through an open window or a crack in a brick wall, sunlight enters the room and gives a sense of the outside world beyond the frame. Each image has its own narrative, yet none of them are real. What at first appears to be authentic, are actually meticulously crafted miniature sets. Built by hand, every object is deliberately placed. The lighting carefully constructed. It is a visual deceit, in a language of its own, that questions reality and our notions of permanence.
