Technique

In order to explore the possibilities of this technical combination in an artistic sense a special enlarger-table was built. It consists of a modified enlarger, a smartphone and a motorized turntable on which the photographic paper is placed. The single parts are coordinated with a control panel and a picture is being developed step by step. Therefore each result is unique. 

These pictures could be described as
'paintings with digital light'.
