Abstract Views of Winter
Captured in various natural settings near Hamburg, this series explores the diverse surface details of frozen landscapes in winter. From thin ice in shallow water to frost-covered ground and frozen vegetation, each image reveals intricate patterns shaped by temperature, light, and environmental conditions. Trapped air bubbles, crystalline structures, and subtle textures emerge through the interplay of light and shadow.
Devoid of clear scale or context, the frozen surfaces appear abstract—defined by tone, structure, and visual rhythm. These close-up views highlight the quiet complexity of winter, where natural formations become graphic compositions shaped by the delicate balance of cold and time.
