Conceptual: Honorable Mention 2018 (professional)
ENTRY DESCRIPTION
Sometimes photographs of ice look like cosmic images. Here ice takes over the role of the night sky.
AUTHOR
Born in 1942 in Strasbourg (Alsace).
Trained as a Photographer and Cameraman in Karlsruhe, Berlin und Hamburg.
Afterwards working as a freelance-documentary-cameraman for various TV stations and free photographic works.
In my photographic work I concentrate on the topic “creative nature”.
In the fine and uninterrupted interplay of natural phenomena I find the motifs from which my pictures are created. My favorite techniques are multiple exposures and montages. The transitions between fact and fiction are fluid.
I want to put normal things in the light of the special, take away what is taken for granted. And I stick to what Hans Magnus Enzensberger says in a poem: "There is no art without pleasure".
The image sizes given are the maximum sizes of the printouts – without loss of quality. They result from my way of working, composing an image from several individual images.
