March 14, 1930. It's eight o'clock and 11-year-old Venetia is having breakfast with her grandfather, who is a librarian at the University of Oxford. He reads aloud from The Times that a new planet has been found. What should it be called, he asked his grandson. Venetia thought for a moment and said it should be called Pluto. According to Roman mythology, he was the god of the underworld and the underworld. Her grandfather agreed and spoke to the astronomers in Oxford who in turn contacted the American astronauts who discovered the planet. They also thought it was a fitting name for this dark and cold planet.

"Silent Stories" is an art project created by husband and wife Andreas Lundberg and Annie Vesterdahl Lundberg. Andreas is a photographer with a background in advertising, fashion and documentary photography. Annie is a hairdresser, make-up artist and, in the project, also a stylist. Each piece is inspired by a true story or fate. Andreas and Annie have made their own interpretation of these stories and sometimes they have changed the era and place. The creative process is often long and exciting, a constant search for a story that they can fantasize about and turn into a work of art. Hundreds of sketches that are turned and twisted eventually become a photograph. The art project Silent Stories started in 2016. Each work is signed and numbered in a limited edition. The stories that inspired the photographs are attached to the back of the works.
