Description of the exhibition:
Over time, contemporary architecture, an essential factor in urban planning, has developed a more aesthetic and graphic appearence.
Outlines, perspectives and the diversity of materials used (glass, concrete, metal, wood) are all sources of inspiration for my photoraphic work.
An essential element of my compositions is a constant human presence within an urban environment, highlighting life in motion inside a static space.
A substantial number of my images were photographed in the Netherlands, because I seek the unique luminosity that exists there.
Biography:
Thomas Dusch, born in 1975 in Strasbourg.
As a self-taught artist, I practice photography in different forms. Polaroid, traditional film and the collodion process are my favourite methods. These have the advantage of not only being limited to shooting, but also in engaging all the techniques of the image production process.
My inspiration comes from contemporary architecture and urban exploration.
Publications in magazines like ''Competence Photo'' and my participation in numerous exhibitions and television programmes have helped to publicise my work.
