Mixed is a vivid and inquisitive exploration of identity by Norwegian artist Dev Dhunsi, whose mixed heritage forms the book’s point of departure. In Norway, where no equivalent word for ‘mixed’ exists, Dhunsi uses photography and text to give form to experiences that language has yet to name, confronting how belonging, visibility, and love are shaped by race, gender, and desire.

Composed of photographs, archival fragments, and text, the book unfolds as a hybrid work where tenderness and defiance, intimacy and displacement coexist. Through layering and juxtaposition, it presents a complex vision of identity that is both personal and collective, transforming hybridity from conflict into creation.

Across these pages, Dhunsi builds an experimental, mythical world – a space where bodies, symbols, and words blur and reform. Mixed sketches out a space for new kinds of humans to exist: fluid, plural, and free.

Mixed was made possible by the Nordic Photobook Award, presented by Fotogalleriet Oslo.
