Dr Graeme Chesters is a photographer, writer and researcher, a Fellow of the Royal Society of Geography and the Royal Society of Arts, and a Special Advisor to the 90 North Foundation. Graeme has a photographic studio in Lancaster, UK, and in addition to his documentary work, he also specialises in landscape, fine art and portraiture photography. His exhibition - Svalbard People - was the northernmost photographic exhibition in the world, when it opened in Longyearbyen, on Svalbard, in 2023. As a former Associate Professor of Peace and Conflict Studies, with an interest in the high Arctic as an area of increased vulnerability for those people and species that make it their home, his documentary and conservation work seeks to highlight stories of change emerging in the region, and to draw attention to the possibilities for peaceful cooperation in the protection of the unique biodiversity of the Central Artic Ocean.
