The photographic work
Started
to work with black & white photography in the late 1980´s.
First exhibition in October 2000 in Heidelberg (DE), with the title
"LandLeben", followed by two in Berlin.
"LantLiv".
The pictures have also been shown in Sweden, where several of them were taken
over the years: at Lidehäll and Nibble Gård close to Enköping
and at the Hercules office in Helsingborg.
In
November 2002 exhibition no. 8 was in the town hall in Scharnebeck (Lower
Saxony, DE). A selection of earlier exhibited pictures is hanging at Lidingby Gård (Enköping, SE).
Currently some pictures are exhibited at the „Kunstroute
Zijpe“.
These photos
are from the past 15 years, a selection from the archive. The currently
exhibited photos are also part of a new project about “trees and wood”.
Photos
document, photos tell (stories). Continuity and change. A notebook in black
& white, and a visual diary. While travelling and nearby (in Germany
and Sweden).
With a title
one can describe, explain, but also stimulate or direct the view into a certain
direction. The title also tells a/his part of the story.
Deliberately
no geographic information is given, so that the observer is not influenced.
Exoticness may not be a rule of its own. The alienation of the known (or the
unknown around the corner) can be more exotic than the alleged exotic.
Many of
the pictures are part of a series. Series often tell much more than a single
picture. Series can show a theme very versatile, from various sides.
