Architecture & Design Shortlist

Every city has its own unique history and personality. My city portraits combine the diverse impressions, discoveries and events of a place into one picture.The compositions are inspired by vedute of the 17th and 18th centuries, but in a contemporary reality that includes objects of street art, public art, advertising signs and shopping areas as symbols of everyday urban life. Using digital collage techniques to merge a large number of my individual images, cityscapes turn into something between documentation and staging. All single photos were taken in Spain, Malaysia, Singapore, Vietnam, Morocco and Germany.
