From Back Home documents a rural Sweden far removed from the big city. Photographers Anders Petersen and JH Engstr�m both hail from the rural county of V�rmland in Sweden, and have returned there to produce this marvelous collaboration. The result is an intimate journey among people, experiences and landscapes spanning over 300 pages. Engstr�m writes of the project: "The land between Klar�lven River and the chestnut tree at Ekall�n is full of little hard memories of sad and lonely times, but there is also a streak of warm confidence that runs all the way up to �lgsj�vallen, a place of fairytale creatures and inquisitive moose. I am carrying my camera, shooting these old dreams through the foliage. It means my memories can never be destroyed because they no longer end in themselves." And Petersen writes: "I've returned to something my body and emotions recognize."
