About "Five-part Berlin, movement in the city"

About the artwork

Some of the photos I took in Berlin show the stationary and the moving city together. Buildings showing historical and modern architecture. The Berlin Wall, streets, historical and tourist landmarks immobile in the cityscape and embedded between the ears of many.

With long shutter speeds, time shots, the people passing by, as well as trams, trains, buses and cars, made part of the moving image within the city's frame.

One of Berlin's famous spots is the James-Simon-Galerie on Bodestrasse. Modern, light architecture with clean lines. The photos were taken at the side of the building where a colonnaded gallery adorns the side and where a visitor can sit down on the stone bench. Early in the morning, the sunlight on the face and during the rest of the day, a nice shady spot.

Bodestrasse is an important thoroughfare for pedestrians and cyclists to different parts of the city centre and the main railway station. Especially in the morning hours, it mainly whizzes into town, from left to right as shown in the photos.

As the early sunlight causes the shadows of the colonnade to fall obliquely on the ground and opposite wall, it creates a perspective that creates imbalance and confusion as to whether the lines are straight. The shadow lines also make it not an angular, symmetrical whole.

The movement of cyclists and walkers interrupts the interplay of lines throughout the picture, giving direction and showing that people are living in the city.
