Wintersjön is an exploration of the winter season and social rituals performed by the inhabitants of the village. Named to evoke an understanding of a different time to that which is seen in North of Oktober, this is a series of images which show the landscape and people, in a different stage of their seasonal cycle and how the community adapt and move in unison with the landscape, via means of a seasonally appropriated social ritual. The word Wintersjön is a play on English and Swedish language. "Winter" being the time of year in English and "sjön" being the word commonly used for lake in Swedish. The two placed together are used to evoke a sense of time and place in both languages. The social ritual in February for the community is the Island party and ski race, which is held on the island in the centre of the lake which surrounds the community.
