Mads Nissen is a Danish documentary and war photographer working with many social and contemporary issues such as homophobia, civil war in Columbia or Libya, and the covid crisis. His interest in photography started when he was around 18 years old while living in Venezuela. Now more than 20 years later, he’s still looking to share hard-hitting stories, show the struggles in other people’s lives, and present humanity through a lens.

As a documentary photographer, Mads seeks to make the world a better place. In his own words, taking just a tiny step, influencing one person’s life, is the most outstanding achievement.

His best work includes “Amazonas”, a book about the Amazon Forest and “We are indestructible”, a book shot in Columbia covering the fight for peace and the history and culture of violence. Moreover, his piece about homophobia in Russia has put him on the documentary photography map.

About documentary photography:

The world changes at the speed of lightning. Human rights issues, natural disasters, political conflicts and scientific breakthroughs have become a norm within today’s society. Documentary photography aims to immortalize some of these moments and perhaps even initiate a change in people’s minds and hearts.
