nacht havens lichten

series, digital photography, 2006 (selection, click on images to enlarge)



The photo series was created during an artist residency at the Foundation B.a.d in Rotterdam. Subjects were the oil, container and chemical industries of the harbour. Their illumination at night creates complex light structures which - by maximizing the contrast - appear detached from their materiality. At the same time, these aesthetically intriguing structures stand for environmental pollution with fossil fuels and other chemicals, as well as light.
