Artist Blog

Every week an artist whose single image was published by Der Greif is given a platform in which to blog about contemporary photography.

When photographing, I often use a sheet of white paper to show the placement and the color of light in the picture. With the help of the paper it is also possible to sculpt the light as if it were tangible material. I can mold the same patterns of light and shadow onto the image, in the way that slowly drifting clouds draw on a landscape of rolling hills and fields on a clear day in the early days of spring.
