Photographers Ning Kai (1987, China) and Sabrina Scarpa (1991, the Netherlands) were both involved in the photographic world before they met and started collaborative works in 2015. Partners in work and in life, their artistic mission has become to portray the land between them, and so they have launched their career as a duo with their series The Land Between Us; which offers ethereal and colourful visions of the natural environment.
From east to west, they capture their journey across the world without the need to locate specific places; instead they are exploring a dreamlike aesthetic perception of global wilderness.
They describe their works as “footsteps” towards a poetic and harmonious world that they wish to create together, which allows them to blur boundaries between space and culture so as to find moments of revelation, equality and intimacy within thinly populated areas and untouched wilderness.
In 2018, Ning Kai and Sabrina Scarpa established CHROME Photographic Arts Space in Zhengzhou, China; a platform dedicated to the practice, understanding and celebration of photography.
