DSC9910 REGARDS SANS LIMITES, Thilo Seidel - T.O.E. Art Market

Winner of the Photography section, Combat Prize 2020. Trying not to picture immediate moments, but rather to explore the environment by questioning perception as well as representation of reality. Interested in absence more than presence, doubt rather than certainty, deconstruction rather than recollection. Crossing spaces to research them and rediscover them artistically. Swimming pools were intensively explored, visually, and physically, while being empty and free of human movement and sound.
