I submitted nine photos to the competition: beyond memory. A preview here and on the site of the competition.

The combination of architecture, space, light and urban landscape creates an atmosphere of a certain moment. A time stamp which open up thoughts and questions.
Concrete and light as marker of history in the urbanity. Abstraction and cut outs as a trigger of imagination. Photos create memory. They are not final result but rather a start to imagine and to remember.
The set of photos here are part of my series ‘eye on detail’. Which is an ongoing project as artist and researcher to collect moments of my urban surrounding.

The paternoster – “an endangered species”. Take a round in a nostalgic elevator. Sightsseing with style. Discover Berlin.
The wonderful wodden cabins move in a certain smooth speed. And the sound while they shift to the other side at the bottom and the top are peculiar for the manual skills of the elevator.
While the majority of the paternosters were shut down. A few are still in use. I will take you with me to three which you can use.
The next appointment is set to March 05, 2012. For details and the booking have a look to: gidsy.com – paternoster tour

Der Durchteckschlüssel verwundert und fasziniert immer mehr Personen. Seit dem 19. Mai 2010 reist ein Exemplar als trackable Item von Geocache zu Geocache. Dabei ist er mittlerweile 5235.3km gereist und wurde von 83 Personen entdeckt bzw. ein Stück mitgenommen. Von Berlin ging es schnell nach Barcelona. Von dort schlich er sich wieder langsam Richtung Deutschland zurück und ist vor allem im Norden unterwegs.
