Thobias Fäldt & Klara Källström are photographers based out of Gothenberg, Sweden, who often collaborate under the constellation KK+TF. Since 2005, the duo have worked on projects together ranging from books, exhibitions, public installations, and various editorial work. Due to the success of her book Gingerbread Monument, Klara will be exhibiting the series at the Center Culturel Suedois in Paris in September. In Autumn, she will releasing a sequel to Gingerbread Monument. Thobias’s series “Where is my Flying Car” will be featured in Alaska Editions Issue 03, and in May, his book Year One will be released by the German publisher Steidl. We were so intrigued by their unique and signature style, that we asked KK+TF to share some of their inspirations by giving us a run down of their favorite books and curiosities.
