We asked Titika about her secret for making her black and white photographs
"My moniker is Titika Rotkjaer, I'm an artist hailing from Copenhagen, Denmark. After completing my communication studies at Roskilde University, Denmark, I relocated to Norway to pursue a degree in visual arts initially at the Oslo National Academy of the Arts and later, in Bergen in Bergen, where I concluded my studies in visual art through the Bergen Academy of Art and Design with a MA in textile Art. I do not have formal instruction in photography. My knowledge about editing and photography is derived from my ongoing self-education.

My goal is always to improve and improve the clarity of the image. Sometimes , I edit old photos in the event that I acquire new information that enables me to come closer to what I was trying to achieve.
The key to making the mysterious images I have created ...? The majority of my photographs that I have created over the past four years, I've explored the complex and sense of self and have a particular interest in the connection between both the outer and inner worlds. A lot of my photos are not necessarily the same. comprise digitally from several images (all obviously, shot by me).
My process typically starts by expressing an interest or curiosity to explore a theme or complex of feelings. I take pictures, make notes and read to gain greater knowledge. I then take another shot. The process of working with my images frequently inspires me to make an entirely new image from several others. I work experimentally, subjectively, and intuitively with the subject matter to let my pictures unfold. There isn't an exact idea of what I want to achieve in my mind's eye and then shoot the elements to construct the picture."
