Hans Malm is working in a documentary style and believes in discovering art in the ordinary. His photographs are therefore more ”captured” than ”made”. The themes are mostly circling around architecture, infrastructure and people's relation to those. He is currently working with a series about the people moving through Slusseni n Stockholm, a modernist traffic junction that has now been torn down to make way for a much debated construction.
