Joel Tettamanti

Bit of a Joel Tettamanti monster today, but any regulars to The Propagandist will know i do loves a bit of snow so, and as such am a massive fan of Mr Tettamanti.
Born in Cameroon, Tettamanti's images evoke feelings of cold quiet isolation, his shoots take him around the world to various locations enabeling him to present the viewer with destinations they would otherwise never see, from Greenland to Romainia to Japan.
Below is a selection from two of his projects, firstly we have:

NUUK, GREENLAND, 2010
















followed by the stunning DAVOS, SWITZERLAND 2006-2009

















Go to his website to see more.
