Structures and contrasts
graffiti from a different angle
Photo series April 2018
Today graffiti can be found in many different places and they are perceived as part of the cityscape. Graffiti as a collective term stands for thematically and creatively different images that are applied with different techniques on any surfaces. From a photographic point of view, I was interested in getting so close to these objects that the actual subject recedes into the background and loses its meaning. In this way the structures of the surfaces and the change of colors and structures due to environmental influences become recognizable. As a result, the strong color and shape contrasts of graffiti in a special way perceptible and get their own quality.
