Bjørn-Henrik Lybeck (b. 1985) is a visual artist who lives and works in Oslo, Norway. He graduated from Bergen Academy of Arts and Design in 2015 with a Master’s degree in Fine Arts. The traditions of straight photography and post-war photojournalism greatly influenced his photography practice. Employing a formal and non-staged style of photography, he carries the legacy into contemporary practice.

Photographing in urban environments and architecture for more than a decade, Cities of the West is interested in what common denominators can be found between several cities of the West. As a keen observer picking up on psychogeography and atmospheric tension, Lybeck are interested in what architecture and public spaces can tell us about our attitude towards humanity.
