Supersaturation

'Supersaturation' can be called an ongoing study in city architecture. Combining different photographs of one city in one image I am aiming to create another point of view on the well-known landscape. Some elements of these new landscapes are easily recognized, others are absorbed and transformed. By this, the most characteristic elements of the city stay on the image and give us a clue of what we are looking at. In return, the absorbed elements appeal to the city’s general impression, its atmosphere. Color and composition resemble the city’s actual structure, but in the compressed way I show it, it rather is perceived on a subconscious level. The abstract image contains details and features of the specific city and creates its unique face and lets the viewer feel the landscape on an intuitive level. Working in series gives the opportunity to compare different moods and structures cities have.
