“Wäldchen hinterm Strom” (grove behind the lines)
2015
from the series Made in China
photo taken from the high-speed train Shanghai – Hangzhou
My first impulse when a power line runs parallel to the train track? Put the camera away. But not on this trip. I had just under an hour between Shanghai and Hangzhou (and between two business meetings), and outside the window was China! And it was a good decision, because I captured this friendly little forest, which the “disturbance” in the picture doesn’t harm at all. On the contrary, the vertical trunks seem to enter into a dialogue with the horizontal parallels, which opens up a new level in the work.
If you would like to purchase this motif as a high-quality fine art print in an open edition, I will be happy to produce an individual pigment print in museum quality for you. The prints are produced to order and can be made in various sizes.
I love this photo, and I’m sure I will soon show it in an exhibition. If this is the artwork that touches your heart and that you want to own as an original, please contact me. I will let you know as soon as the picture is on show and available for purchase.
