JONAS BENDIKSEN

Bendiksen was born in Norway and started working at the age of 19 as a photographer. He travels the world working as a photojournalist searching for those stories no one is interested about, the "Orphan stories" as he calls them, and make reports about them. 
His photos are, because of his work, often socially loaded. He shows us how people al over the world are trying to survive in the most harsh conditions. 
He has a more classic approach to photography, but the often strange scenes in the photos make his work fascinating. He manages to show these hard conditions in a strange and beautiful way. And that's why, in my opinion, Bendiksen is one of the best photojournalists from the last few years.
