Statement
The photos that I submitted here are focussed on geometric shapes, lines, patterns, shadows and reflections of the banal. I like taking photos of things that everyone passes by everyday without noticing it – the beauty and simplicity of a handrail for example. By taking a photo of everyday things I try to show the beauty of the banal in a urban scenery and make it into an artwork in and by itself. The subjects that I’m mostly drawn to are the inanimate objects that I pass by when walking on the streets – I often wait quite a while for people to go out of the shot that I’m interested in.
All of these photos were shot on Kodak Tri-x on a Canon AE-1, Olympus XA or Mju II.
