master fotografie

  • Reality disappears, therefore the photographer must reinvent it. The autonomy of photography is based on the awareness that reality ceases to exist, that it will be less and less possible for us to grasp reality directly. Only indirectly, through the medium of photography, does reality come back to life. However, even this life is only a reduced, limited one. Silence permeates everything, everywhere.

    (naar Wieland Schmied, Photographs from the real world, 1993.)
