Los Angeles-based Danish photographer GREGERS HEERING arrived in Los Angeles in the 2000s for the American Film Institute, and found his artistic calling in the poetry of still photography. Gregers retraces his journey, and describes seminal projects along the way, photographing homicide detectives in the South (2008), children in Western Greenland (2009), The Royal Danish Ballet (2009–2014), and life onboard a Maersk cargo ship (2014–15).
Gregers selects a work by Niels Skovgaard from the SMK collection.
