Surreal Photography By Erik Johansson

In 2005 he moved to Gothenburg to study Computer engineering at Chalmers University of Technology. During studying he took up his interest for retouching again. He had a lot of ideas that he wanted to realize while trying to make them as realistic as possible. After publishing some of his images online he started to get requests about commissioned work from some local advertisement agencies. He started freelancing in parallel with his studies while still working on personal projects. He got more and more jobs and at the time he finished his studies with a master in Interaction Design he wanted to try out the photography path. He moved to Norrköping in the eastern part of Sweden to start working full time as a freelance. He worked on interesting projects, both local and abroad. In 2012 he moved to Berlin, Germany.
Erik Johansson today:
"Today I work with both personal and commissioned projects, in 2011 I also started doing street illusions and in 2012 I plan to move on to motion pictures as well as starting with a book project. In November 2011 I spoke at the TED conference in London about my images. I’ve been working with clients such as Google, Microsoft and IKEA. But the personal work and concepts will always be what’s most important. Growing up on the Swedish countryside had a big impact on my visual style. A lot of the environments in my photos are captured near places I know, around my parents’ home with wide open landscapes and small red houses. Inspiration is everywhere and this is just the beginning."
