Lena Öritsland

Photographer, born 1954, living and working in Gothenburg.

Lena Öritsland has been walking with a camera on her shoulder since she was 17, and when she began to approach her 30s, she wanted to take the opportunity to develop her artistic side, she sought and entered the University of Arts, Crafts and Design in Stockholm.
