Kunstnerens egen kommentar
Oslo, Norway
Casper Ruud is the fourth highest
ranking men's tennis player in
the world. This is something
Norwegians are rightly very proud
of given that the nation is more
recognised for producing elite alpine
skiers.
These are heady sporting days for
the country. They also currently
boast the most talked about
footballer on the planet and a very
competitive professional golfer
in Viktor Hovland. Ahead of our
show in Oslo in late September, we
have spent some time in Norway
photographing some of their stars
and the opportunity to work with
Casper was a treat.
He is the most likeable and modest
of sport stars, especially given his
position in the world rankings, and
is single handedly creating a tennis
boom in the country. As we have seen
with Croatia and football, success
begets success and that makes his
career and legacy very relevant in
Norway. It happened in Sweden a
generation ago and Casper is aware
of the responsibility his success has
bestowed upon him.
I wanted to play on the relationship
between the player and those that
follow him with the intensity that
only sport can deliver. The end of
every rally can elicit almost identical
emotions in both protagonist and
fan - whether that emotion be opened
mouthed elation or head in hands
disappointment. The bigger the
point, the bigger the emotion, and
therefore the sense of behavioural
harmony is amplified.
My preconception was that this
photograph should be cinematic
and, in my pondering, I had an
idea as to what would work in the
background. It needed to be abstract
to lead the eye to Casper, but it also
needed to inform. There was a fine
balance and it's an iterative process.
I think we got there in the end.
No sport creates this sense of unity
between player and spectator more
than tennis.
