The Place Behind Photograph - Limited Edition of 10

The photo artist Jürgen Heckelmann was born in Munich in 1973 and grew up there. Parallel to his technical Craftsmanship training in aircraft construction, Jürgen Heckelmann has devoted himself since 1993 to intensive analogue and digital photography with all its possibilities; a passion that he perfected with further academic education in image processing, layout and illustration. His artistic work focuses on architecture and nature, which he designs with his monumental power and in fascinating dimensions. Heckelmann`s images develop a peculiar depth that blurs time and space. Heckelmann finds his motifs in his home country as well as on numerous journeys around the world. His creative gaze can be focused on his surroundings, the perception of the right moment, the discovery of the extraordinary perspective, the play of light and shadow, impressive symmetries and panoramas, and the seemingly inconspicuous detail. With the camera, he explores the stark northern landscapes, sometimes pulsating metropolises - and feels the pulse, the rhythm of life here and now, in the rain, in the storm or under sun, by day or night. Jürgen Heckelmann lives and works in Munich.
