This is a very emotional work. Like always, when I start a new slit-scan work, I have only a vague idea of the result. What I certainly know is the emotional goal I want to target at. With this goal in mind, I first decide on the subjects on the turntable. In the finished work one might hardly see with the eyes, what had been placed on the turntable, but the heart might feel it. So, the subjects are the emotional link to the real world. The link between the \u2018real\u2019 world, and the \u2019space over time world\u2019, which is nonetheless real, but invisible to our eyes. <\/p>\n\n
The next thing I do is to determine the position of the mirrors. The position of the mirrors is very important, because in the end, the mirrors envelop the subjects in a smooth wadding. Finally, I decide on the speed of the turntable with the subjects on it. Slower means less or no repeating forms and a more peaceful results, faster means more repeating forms and kind of more energy in the results. Beside the basic camera settings, where the aperture has a very important role, this is it. Then I start with taking the photos. The many thousand photos then go through the slit-scan developing process and only then I see what came out \u2013 depending on the project, sometimes many hours later. <\/p>\n\n
Sometimes I am surprised of the results. But this one here touched me so much. It might not be as spectacular as others on the first glance, but its tender forms and colors always make me think of a dream like walk through a mirror cabinet and thus always calms me down, makes me quite and humble. And most of all, for me it is HOPE itself. <\/p>\n\n
