How does someone go from the strictest of photographic arts – photojournalism – to building a body of work based on one of the most abstract forms of photography there is?

I’m pleased to welcome Kaisa Siren to the conversation. From her home base in the Arctic Circle, Kaisa has explored both far afield and close to home. We chat about how she realized ICM as a way to balance her creative energy, making images with intention, and how ICM helps to make the invisible visible.

Kaisa is a photographic artist and makes her soul landscape visible with Intentional Camera Movement using northern sceneries of Finland as her backdrop. She focuses on themes related to the seasons of Lapland, and the sensitivity of nature. She lives in row·vuh·nee·eh·mee, at the Arctic Circle in Lapland, Finland, where she works as a freelance photographer. She is widely published in various Finnish magazines and newspapers and has had several solo and group exhibitions in Finland, Sweden, Denmark, New York , Scotland and Germany. She has been a regular contributor to the ICMPhotoMag from its very beginning. She is a co-founder of ICMPhotomag Network Community and ICM Photo Academy, and teaches courses on ICM photography, both in person and on-line, and has been a co-leader of New Beginnings workshops from the start in 2021.
