“My body was homesick, while my soul was growing"
- Inuuteq Storch 
 
In a recent interview with Danish newspaper Information, Inuuteq Storch speaks with journalist Rasmus Elmelund about his photographic practice, growing up in Sisimiut, leaving Greenland for New York, and ultimately returning home. The conversation traces Storch’s journey as a photographer and the deeply personal nature of his work - rooted in friends, family, and everyday life - while reflecting on how images of Greenland inevitably take on political meaning in a time of heightened international attention.
 
“Normally, there is nothing political in my projects. But the time and society we live in make everything automatically political"
- Inuuteq Storch 
 
The interview was conducted at the gallery during Storch’s solo exhibition Swing by at 14:14.
