International Congress Centrum - ICC Berlin, 1979, photography Project

Behance

The ICC Berlin gained worldwide recognition for its quality, technical features, and unique appearance, blending the technological enthusiasm of its time with functional brilliance. As a child of that era, the design reflects the future optimism and mechanical aesthetics of the 1960s and 1970s, while shedding light on the historical developments between East and West in Berlin. For this project, I've explored photographically the contrast and necessity of the inner and outer design of this outstanding congress center.

Aligned double-exposure images form a Wildstyle Piece Panorama, visually blending diverse street adventures as they gradually fade into one another.

A nuanced exploration of the urban Art subculture through the intricate interpretation of landscapes. Employing light-capturing adaptations of Graffiti, it covertly appropriates the essence of my constructed environment.

Double Exposed Gewandhaus Leipzig

Today I walked through the city to start working on a new series of monochrome Double Exposure photographs. I like this one very much! Made with my Nikon Z6II & Nikkor Z 28mm f/2.8

Refugio en el Universo

Refugio Punta de los Roques / La Palma 2019

6840 ft / 2085 m

On May 26th I started my first multi-day hiking trip into the mountains of La Palma. I choose parts of the GR-131 trail - better known as Ruta El Bastón - the famous trail of the Transvulcania Ultra Marathon. I started from Regufio El Pilar and wanted to hike two days to the Roque de Los Muchachos. On the way there is a cabin - the Refugio Punta de Los Roques - where I have planned to spend a night for photography. The Refugio is perfectly located and offers the best view at the Cascada de nubes.

In the end, the main panorama became a composition of 97 single photos. Meanwhile I was almost laying on the ground while shooting due to the freezing wind and I could hardly feel my fingers anymore.

One year later this image became the cover shot for my longterm astrophotography documentary „Canary Lullabies“

EXIF: Nikon D810 + AF-S 50mm

Panorama - 97 Frames

Leipzig, 2023

Visual crackle of urban subcultures and their spatial appropriation: Hip Hop, not necessarily in form, but in the methodology of recognizing and taking advantage of architecture and surfaces. The ambience of the hardcore continuum as exposed sight - Pirate Radio for your eyes, cutting a dubplate on your retina. Crunching bits of scenic cityscapes remain like ghosts. Decoding like a Wildstyle Graffiti Piece. Visual vandalism of a light-capturing writer. A rediscovery of flow

Double Exposed Landscape Photography as a hauntologically melancholic search for creative excitement and nature based thrill in the urban environment of my hometown.

Zona Caliente

In January 2023, I looked closer at the edges of La Palmas latest eruption zone, where devastating streams of lava and inhabited areas merge into a grotesque scenery. The Paradise succumbs to the curse of its own creation. Yet again.

Milchstrassen Galaxie über Llano de Ucanca / Teneriffa 2020 Wandbild als Fine Art Kunstdruck, Poster, Leinwand oder Alu-Dibone - tolle Geschenkidee. Den Link zum Shop findest du in der Bio Das Nachtbild-Panorama zeigt die Staub- und Gaswolken unserer Heimgalaxie, der Milchstraße in unglaublichen Detailreichtum. Das hochauflösende Bild wurde mit spezieller Ausrüstung im Teide Nationalpark von Teneriffa auf den Kanarischen Inseln fotografiert. Das sagt der Fotograf dazu: „Die Verwendung von nachgeführten Langzeitbelichtungen mit einer astromodifizierten Kamera zahlt sich wirklich aus. Mit 180s Langzeitbelichtungen erreichen Sie unglaubliche Details in den Strukturen und h-alpha Farbdetails. Wow! Die Arbeit an einem solch komplexen Panorama mit Ultra-Langzeitbelichtung erfordert viel Zeit und Mühe, man bekommt nicht viele Bilder aus einer Nacht heraus, wenn man Stunden an einem solchen Bild verbringt, aber ich denke, die Qualität spricht für sich.“ Alle Bilder © Martin Lovekosi @martinlovekosi #weltall #universum #milchstrasse #milchstraße #fotowand #wandbild #fotodruck #fotogeschenk #teneriffa #teneriffa🌴 #astronomie #astrofotografie #astrofoto #langzeitbelichtung #leipzig #fineartdruck #fotodruck #poster #fotoposter #dekorationinspiration #dekorationsideen #landschaftsfotografie #landschaftsfoto #landschaftsfotograf #etsysale #spaceart #fotografieren #fotografieren_ist_unser_hobby #leipzigfotos #nachthimmel #sterne (hier: Teneriffa) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cjc0-9TDGtw/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Grace & Tristesse above the Tajogaite Volcano

A Black and White Photography Series about the landscapes of an untouched plateau above the newly created Tajogaite Volcano at La Palma. A few months after the end of the volcanic eruption, I had the chance to be one of the first photographers in the area of Llano del Jable after opening the road LP-301 into the Cumbre Vieja. The plateau is located right above the craters on the east side of Tajogaite and offered a truly natural impression of the covered tristesse and bizarre perspective on a vulnerable moment in time
