Joakim Kocjancic * 1975 in Milan, lives in Stockholm

The photographer Joakim Kocjancic studied art in Florence and photojournalism in London before settling in Stockholm in 2006. Eight years later, he brought out a book that attracted not a little attention, Stockholm Paradise. With its clear-cut black-and-white esthetic and subjects drawn from contemporary street photography, the book goes well with the expressionism of an Anders Petersen, the artist’s mentor, who himself studied under another major figure of street photography, Christer Strömholm.
