This coming fall she is collaborating with the photo archive of Storuman county to exhibit and display old images with new produced work by herself. Petra works mainly with photography and tends to mix her own photographs with found imagery and text: “My work is about the nostalgic feeling I have towards home, it is my detachment from it that has harbored a fascination with the imagery and texts of romanticism and mythological art. A desire to reconfigure memory and dive into a world of my own creation which involves mythical landscapes, portraits, found imagery and text
