Transparenz

Fernie, Canada 2009

In my project „Transparenz“ (Transparency) I use double exposure to create a place
that doesn’t exist in the mountain world.

The brusqueness, the inhospitality and menace of the mountains is abolished.

The landscape is clear yet resists interpretation.

Fascinating and at the same time absurd photographs come into existence in a space
that remains inaccessible to humans.

I began taking photographs for „Transparenz“ in various ski resorts across Canada in 2008.
It is an ongoing project.

The landscapes are photographed on Dia 6x7 with a Mamiya 7II.
