/ CONCEPT /
The photographs you find here are a selection of photos from architecture and panoramas of the cityscape of London. All the photographies are manipulated first by straightening their lines to fit a more frontal view without perspective distortions, especially along the verticals (a typical phenomenon by photographing from ground perspective upwards), then by blurring the shapes to release them from their context and the amount of hyper-information provided by a traditional photograph with their exact detailing of every pixel and finally by releasing the important and personally observed details again bringing them to the surface. The images coming into existence are set free from their original objects while still maintaining a relationship to the underlying architecture, both in-between the dreamlike blurred and the real.
