With this series, I took up an idea from the great Austrian photographer Lisette Model from the 1940s and reinterpreted it. The result is a series of images from cities in Europe that reflect society as well as today's "Zeitgeist". Based on that, I interpreted the topic in my own way: the pictures from New York, Paris, Milan and Bratislava can be assigned to the genre of street photography, in which people in their cultural context becomes the focus of interest. They are a realistic depiction of today's inner cities with their anonymous atmosphere in which hardly anyone lives anymore and people seem somehow lost or hiding away in interior spaces - i.e. in a café, a hair salon or in a car. I consider black and white photography to be the ideal medium for capturing life in today's inner cities. My credo is: Bright colors and neon lights of big cities would only distract from the actual message of the picture. In addition, I took my photos with analogue cameras in order to reproduce the hustle and bustle of the cities and the visual impressions and sensory illusions that bombard people there as authentically as possible using the stylistic device of blur.
