Thomas Olafsson

We fell in love with Thomas Olafsson’s work this weekend after seeing his latest editorial project ‘Come To Nothing’ in Danish culture mag Dry Magazine. We figured the entire thing was gloriously Nordic; we were in Copenhagen, the magazine was available in only the best independent boutiques, and with a surname like Olafsson, well, we knew that Thomas must also be from that part of the world just as soon as we saw that at the top of the page.

‘Come To Nothing’ is a stunning series of portraits featuring a women wearing a traditional burqa (along with some fly sneakers). Every shot captures her in-and-among some stunning natural settings, except for one, which snaps the discarded burqa (and some fly Nike sliders) sat on a rock.
