About "Blinking in the dust of the past"

About the artwork

The photo shows a window in an abandoned paper factory in the Black Forest, through which only weak light penetrates. The once functional industrial glazing is now dull, encrusted with dirt and marked by time. In front of it stands a railing with a coiled cable - silent testimony to abandoned work processes. A graffiti in the form of a stylised smiley face with crossed eyes and an outstretched tongue is particularly eye-catching. The contrast between the morbid atmosphere and the cheeky face creates an ambivalent mood of melancholy and irony. It almost seems as if the place itself is winking - as a silent response to the decay that surrounds it. The monochrome colour scheme emphasises the heaviness of the scene and draws the eye to the texture of the windows, walls and floor. This snapshot captures the essence of urban exploration: the exploration of forgotten spaces and the discovery of traces left by people - accidental, planned or ironically playful. The combination of technical structure, decay and creative expression makes this image an authentic testimony to past industrial history through the ages.
