inside the darkness

a growing collection


Welcome to my world and thanks for your interest.

From time to time I will update this page, so it is most likely that you will find more informations, if you visit next time.

 

the idea behind "inside the darkness"

The collection shows the (beautiful) failure of technical imperfection, to remind us of the beauty of our own imperfection itself.

 

The pictures (base-material for the animated results) where taken in the dark. Under these circumstances the cameras produce special light spots. It is like you cover your eyes inside the darkness. your eyes/brain sends you thousands of miracle stars.

 

A super minimalistic photographic approach is asking the question "what do you need to dream?"

One possible answer is "nothing".

the technique

All artworks are animated single shot pictures.

 

I used different mobile phones, from different ages to capture the images. Including my first clamshell-mobile phone from 2003. It's unbelievable what "dirt" this phone produces. I love it.

The transfer of the pictures from the phones to the computer was not an easy thing, I can tell.

 


There is no collagen or multiple exposure in this collection.
