INTERMISSION II

Sascha Weidner had an eye for magic moments/ he knew how to capture the poetic, the fleeting on paper. Removed from the documentary, his photographs feature familiar things from completely new, unsuspected perspectives and transfer everyday life into make-believe worlds. For instance, the orange-yellow light of a streetlamp that illuminates a maple tree becomes golden rain, plumes of smoke swi rl magically around cars damaged in accidents, or ruffled white sheets become cloud formations.
