Photovisualisations are available in an edition of 10 signed prints,
each. Prizing is 300,- € for a print sized 50 × 75.3 cm (19.7 × 29.5 inch;
image size). Smaller prints may be lower prized per agreement
(see contact in case of interest).
Photovisualisations: because digital photography is the starting point
of the process – expressly only photographs I took myself. They are
stacked und pushed to surrealistic alienation. The process is guided
by my own inner images that have been evoked by the subjects that
seek for artistic expression: both, in writing and in imag(e)ination I
aim to convey what I „see“. Both—writing poems and visualising
images—are closely related. Medium of the poem is speech, i.e.,
something to be heard, medium of the images is digitally estranged
photography, i.e., something to be seen.
More often than not motifs are developed in series. Variations of color,
for instance, open the subject to diverse interpretation and create
additional tension.
The original photograph, too, has its artistic value. In taking photo-
graphs I often follow a leitmotif, i.e., recurrent theme directing and
focusing my view. Finally, both, original photographs and photo-
visualisations may be further developed in videos.
