"A summer evening"

2016 | Photographs | 27 × 20 cm | Framed with multi-layer panels

“A summer evening” is a painterly photographic work. The color moods of a summer evening walk were captured in order to reproduce them in a very different place and time as well as under different conditions. Reduction and abstraction have been appropriate methods to achieve this. The real place and the real conditions are blinded out. In this way it becomes possible to make generalizations. By simplifying, positive associations are awakened in viewers, which become as universally valid as possible. Ideally, the images may assert radiating joy and warmness. And they may also cause remembrances of a beautiful walk on a summer evening.
