Years later, this Urbex site was revitalized – reanimated.
Artists quickly took action, and many graffiti works were created.
I was able to take some photos there with friends –
as a sustainable process without leaving a trace.
One of my photographs shows a young man, no clothes, naked, without any protection.
The contrast to the former time – tough men, hard work,
fully equipped, dangers everywhere – couldn't be greater.
The contrast between man and machine is equally rich in contrast.
When you become aware of these aspects,
you can see sustainable development in this picture.
It shows the transformation of the world of work and our society.
It also ranges from exploitation to freedom.
Deus ex Machina
Deus ex Machina literally means:
God from the machine.
Sounds a bit far-fetched, doesn't it?
This refers to an unexpected helper or surprising circumstance,
through which a previously unsolvable problem suddenly becomes solvable.
Zeus in action
The image is digitally composed of several photographs.
I take my photographs as raw material and use them to create new images.
However, artificial intelligence did not work here, my own intelligence was sufficient.
