ÒClimbingÓ is a metaphor for the repeated steps of exercise and experiments that paved the road up to a personal next level of digital imaging.
Composing an inspiring catalogue, it proved a rewarding thought to use images of stairs to make this booklet more than just another series of snapshots, which is often a pitfall for such publications. The stairs became a catalyser for a page exceeding fusion of different images.
The way images reacted on each other and integrated with connecting backgrounds added a whole new dimension to the project and compensates for the reduced scale of the images. The more than 150 images used for this publication are designed to be printed on media dimensioned up to one by one meter. Compressed they do not show their decorative power to the full advantage. It was a very pleasant surprise that, resized in combination, many of them show other qualities.
