About "Up and away."

by Christoph Jirjahlke

About the artwork

The picture is a good 30 years old and was taken in analogue. It shows a decommissioned aircraft that was used as a restaurant.

The pale unspectacular light gave the plane something out of time. Like in a dream from a bygone era or an old memory.

The picture awakens wanderlust and invites you to dream. It conveys a positive feeling with a touch of melancholy.

The photo was taken 30 years ago on analogue Agfa slide film and has now been re-digitised. The colours have been reduced a little to enhance the vinatge look.

It is a beautiful example of pure photography without gimmickry. The calm character of the picture and the dynamic lines make it a universally applicable motif for living rooms but also for offices.

The place where the photo was taken looks completely different today. A small forest has grown there. (Ith, at the glider airfield in Lower Saxony, west of Hanover). The glider is still there today. And it's still a restaurant. And I know where it is.
