“By moving my camera along as I feel the moment unfold I can basically “paint” the image – without trying to squeeze something into the frame or leaving it out.” – Sven Kils

In my photographic journey, I’ve chosen to break free from conventional boundaries. I no longer seek to merely capture a singular moment within a frame. Instead, I immerse myself in the entirety of what I perceive—the passage of time, the vastness of space, and the fluidity of movement.

Standard formats like 3:2 or 5:4, while remarkable in their own right, often feel restrictive. The world I see, with its grandeur and expansive landscapes, beckons for a broader perspective, a canvas that is boundless.

My art is about embracing freedom, casting off the constraints of the traditional frame. When I shoot, I lose myself in the scene, forgetting about the camera, the lens, and their limitations. Whether it takes a single shot or a series of 80, it’s about capturing what I see, naturally and effortlessly. I let the scene guide me, moving my camera along as I feel the moment unfold.

I ‘paint’ the image, without trying to squeeze something into the frame or leaving it out.
