In 2001, leading Swedish photographers Anders Petersen and JH Engström began a seven-year collaboration to photograph the Värmland, the central western area of Sweden where both men spent their formative years.

Travelling into the heart of their subject, their potent and captivating photographs became an intense voyage of discovery into both the place and people that shaped them, and their associations with one another.

The body of work culminated in an award winning book and now an exhibition, which will be presented here for the first time in the UK.
