This is a personal long-term project which started in 2009. The title translates to The window.

The project started out as a need for spending my time during daily travels between home and college. It was a curiosity for how I could capture fragments of moods rushing by outside the windows. After a while it developed into an obsession as well, no matter what kind of vehicle I travelled with and where I travelled to.

It is a dedication to the journeys and inbetweens of our everyday lives which so often slip into an odd vacuum. The travelling is rarely more than a gap between A and B and have always seemed degraded compared to the arriving. But it is nevertheless filled with expectations, excitement and nostalgia. And out there: Movements and landscapes ready to stimulate memories.
