間 ma, the space in between.

Michael Barth unites the basic principles of Japanese aesthetics of balance and harmony. Following the 'utskushii mono', 'The Creation of the Beautiful', coherent, traditional conceptions are made clear here. Japanese aesthetics characterizes the 'non-conflict with nature'. The cultivated human being is like the wind, with free self, without attachment able to overcome the substantial ego, which is recognized by Buddhism as an illusion. The free self is described as 'empty' or as Buddha nature. The invisible space corresponds to this emptiness, defines the material level and is considered to be the connection to the spiritual world.

Michael Barth was born in Nuremberg in 1964. His father, a well-known journalist from the 1960s and 1970s, introduced him to photography at an early age. After his apprenticeship in Munich, numerous assistances followed in the areas of fashion, people and stilllife photography. Extensive trips to North and Central America followed; there he supported projects of indigenous peoples politically and photographically, worked closely with tribal councils on environmental protection. To realize his projects, he worked in Munich as a studio photographer and commercial film maker for the industry. He devoted himself to Art-Photography his entire life. For almost two decades he and his wife organize exhibitions in pop-up galleries and temporary exhibition areas selling his pictures directly to collectors and art lovers.
