“What’s great about the northern lights is that it’s constantly moving – nothing is ever the same,” says Mattson, who resides in the small northern Norwegian village Hemnesberget in the county of Nordland. “I’m quite restless, and I very much enjoy change, which is why this suits me so well.” Her northern lights collection constantly expands and evolves, thanks to the many different directions the northern lights go in. “Sometimes you can barely see it, and other times, there’s a flaming light,” she explains. “There are so many different colours – it’s so fascinating; I really can’t take my eyes off it.”
