This work grew out of my fascination with the tension between geometry and decay. While photographing, a composition in which straight lines and areas of colour are abruptly interrupted by fractures, wear and tear and traces of time caught my eye. What began as documentation of a piece of industrial reality grew into an abstract translation of harmony and disruption.
The atmosphere is layered and quietly expressive. The alternation of planes suggests order, but beneath it lurks turmoil - as if time itself has imprinted itself. This work fits within the spirit of minimalist and post-industrial abstract photography, akin to the work of photographers like Idris Khan or artists like Donald Judd, in which rhythm, repetition and imperfection seek each other out.
What makes this image unique is that it is not only viewed, but also experienced. As wall art, it lifts a space to another level: it not only creates atmosphere, but also a field of tension that continues to intrigue.
It is a work that does not tell one what to see, but invites one to keep exploring - again and again, each time differently. A visual silence that speaks all the more powerfully.
