Henrieke Strecker: Traces of time

Photo:  Untitled by Henrieke I. StreckerHenrieke Strecker’s beautiful pinhole photography is testament to the strength of photography in art. Her fascination with movement and the layers of moments captured by long exposure, reveal the very traces of time as well as her philosophy:

‘Remaining at a place, emerging from the usual allday mad rush, which has no chance, no hope of arrival, permits a perception to come up, what actually happened will appear again. Tales will step out of this rush, gestures threatened to be drowned by this quickness, almost covered by it.

I want to give an account of these small movements, atmospheres, not an isolated moment, “painting a realistic picture”, according to a report, but the experience of the situation, in which the taking was undergone.’
