    line expansions | 2013 - 2015

photographs, black permanent marker various dimensions On the border between photography and drawing "line expansions" is an ongoing series of photos, drawn-over with a black permanent marker. Basicly, the body of „line expansions“ gives a method for a reduction of „eyes interest“, a visualised decision by drawing over everything, which is not interesting. I see my photographs more like visual bookmarks, wherein I documentate an idea of order and content.
