Ein Blick. Kein Plan. Kein Motiv.
Ein Foto, das lieber malt als festhält.
Wie ein Satz ohne Punkt.
Wie ein Gedanke, den das Licht unterbricht.
—
A glance. No plan. No motif.
A photograph that prefers to paint rather than capture.
Like a sentence without a period.
Like a thought interrupted by light.

Reduziert auf Form und Fläche. Ein Feld, ein Horizont – inspiriert von Nicolas de Staël. Zwischen Fotografie und Malerei.

These black-and-white images captures the band Jungle performing at their concert in Metastadt. As a fan since 2014, I was excited to see them live, although their performance felt somewhat impersonal. Despite this, the audience had a great time, with everyone dancing and enjoying the music. The stage setup is visually striking, with bright vertical lights and the band’s name illuminated in the background, adding to the overall ambiance of the event.

As a passionate design fan, I find myself drawn to simple and clear forms, just like this chair by designer Maurice Burke from the 1960s. As a contrast, I appreciate how textures can add depth and interest to such clean designs. Fun fact: this chair made an appearance in 1966 on Star Trek!

In this photo, you can see the plate camera that my grandfather gave me. During World War II, he traded the camera for a box of ci******es and took a series of photos with it. For me, the most beautiful photo was taken in 1952 by a friend of them, where my grandmother and grandfather walk hand in hand down a paved street in my hometown of Luxembourg. They look happy, freshly in love, and seem to have forgotten the horrors of that time in this moment.
I wish I could know where they were going and what they did that day, but unfortunately, I can’t anymore because both of them are no longer with us.
My grandmother didn’t cope well with what she experienced during World War II and ended her life when I was still a small child. However, I still remember her warmth, kindness, and her frequent laughter very well.
My grandfather passed away recently at the age of 93. He never talked about the war, but he also had his burdens to bear. I remember his calm manner and that he never complained about anything. He always saw the good in people and just wanted to have a good time.
This photo radiates hope for me. The sun on their faces and the future ahead of them.

A moment of timeless elegance. The monochromatic setting highlights the fine details and adds a special depth to the image. A testament that true beauty lies in simplicity.
