Anderson, Peggy The Morning Dip (3868289763)
The small coastal village of Torekov, Sweden, is known for both
its local pier, »Morgonbryggan,« and for the associated daily
ritual of a morning dip in the sea. Locals and summer guests are
avid disciples of this sacred ritual which can be both solitary
and social. There are unwritten codes of behavior related with
this activity, including the most visually obvious, the selection
of one’s bathrobe. Through the slow and repetitive process of
working with a large format film camera, the photographer
Peggy Anderson has gained insight into this community, her
native country and her own place within it.
Peggy Anderson is a photographer based in New York and Sweden
but currently living in Paris. She graduated from The International
Center of Photography (ICP) in 2013. Since then she
has been pursuing various photography projects. The Morning
Dip was exhibited at Fotografiska, Stockholm in 2015.
