Thomas Roepke

„Photography is the art to show more than there is seen.“

„What is it, that makes Röpkes work so irresistible ?
What makes me stick to one collage and scroll over the other?
Röpkes kaleidoscopes create individual an universal happiness and
spontaneous exclamations like „wow“ seem normal.
The intoxicating effect of Röpkes art is more than a conjunction of
science and art, it is the amalgamation of spirit and soul.
The viewer gets startet to solve the enigma which he is given.

His fascinating imagery has meditative and therapeutic potential.
For the viewers phantasy his tableaus are calming and inspiring both at a time.

This is the fascination of Röpkes work.“
