Albert Elm's 'This Much Is True' captures absurd world in photographic autobiography

Danish photographer Albert Elm releases his newest photography book 'This Much Is True', a nomadic odyssey across the strangest sights on Earth. The project features half-buildings, alien-esque icebergs, dismembered animals, and giant snow castles, reflecting Elm's childhood experience of moving frequently and adapting to new environments. The title references a 'post-truth era', questioning what can be taken at face value. Elm describes photography as objective yet improvisational, akin to jazz music. The book offers an alternative vision of suburban life, natural formations, and life and death, serving as an exercise in empathy. Published in 2026, the project is available through diskobay.org and Elm's Instagram.
