ME, MYSELF OR I |

The formal language surrounds emotional and aesthetical permanence, using precision, reduction and minimalism for finding an absolute moment in architecture — where form finds perfect understanding and a compact cultural history. Photography is a suiting medium to develop these ambitions in terms of architecture. Such photos have more weight than those which try to capture a moving moment (which street photography does perfectly). This may sound pretentious which would be a misunderstanding. It's rather difficult not to put this topic into ‘heavy concrete foundations’, since the construction of a single building already results in a mass of processes. I exactly try to interact with this topic, to capture a formal understanding in an aesthetic way, suiting the object and finally making the topic lose some weight. [Daniel Pabst]
