Cuba In Waiting

Everyone is waiting for change. Though there is genuine reverence for the king-like figure of Fidel Castro and his revolutionary achievements, everyone is nevertheless waiting… This collection of photographs is part of a series of photographs which has emerged from Erik Knudsen looking at this ‘Cuba In Waiting’ over the past 3 or 4 years.  Taken mainly in Havana Province, he has waited for moments and fragments of stories to present themselves to him and has tried to capture these moments as a reflection of his feelings about Cuba.

Doubt

Doubt is a photographic and film project exploring faith and creativity through feelings of doubt in the context of a society that on the surface seems increasingly secular and certainly more materialistic. Using notes from 30 years of notebooks, recent photographs and a revisiting of previous film work through the creation of a a Essay Film, Erik Knudsen explores the very deepest motivations for wanting to create and grow.
