Ida Oppen

Ida Oppen is a photographer, and has taken many of the photos that enrich the visual world of The Amelia Project. She started out with a mainly technical photography education, but ended up back where she started; with her main focus on the creative process, the passion, and the freedom that lies within the digital medium. Her archive of photographs is an eclectic heap where paid assignments are only the tip of the iceberg. For The Amelia Project the archive has been opened, dusted, sifted through, and viewed with new eyes. Random, weird and rather meaningless everyday-photos suddenly found their home and purpose, and Ida got a good excuse to go out and point her camera at stuff she otherwise wouldn’t.
