Kasper Bergholt ~ Copenhagen Artist & Photographer

Impressionistic photo of Enghaveparken,, Vesterbro, Copenhagen. By: Copenhagen Photographe & Artist Kasper Bergholt.

I’ve been away from the world of visual arts for about 16 years, but I’m back with a renewed interest after buying a vintage camera for a minor macro-photography project.

This branched out into taking shots of architecture and various objects, some of which have been clustered into the ‘Objects for an Ideal Home‘ series.

I hold a Master of Arts degree (and a rare gold medal) from the University of Copenhagen.

Copenhagen art & photography

I live in Copenhagen, Denmark, an area that’s the epicenter of the ‘Flora Excursoria Hafniensis‘ series.

In 2024, I started on two new series: ‘The Time Is Out of Joint‘ referencing Shakespeare and Derrida, and ‘Copenhagen Chronotopes’.
