Fred Mortagne - Untitled #7

Title: Untitled #7
Location: Barcelona, Spain
Year: 2013
Skateboarder: Karsten Kleppan

A spontaneous picture, shot while roaming around Barcelona with a crew of nordic skateboarders. I didn’t really know this modern part of the city, the Barcelona Forum, which proved to be a place where I returned every time I was in town again. The super structure is a solar panel, and this is one my pictures where the skater appears the smallest. Part of my work over the years has been about showcasing skaters as part of the urban biotopes in which they evolve, and taking the opposing view of shooting with a fisheye, in the heart of the action.
