This monograph for visual artist Katrin Korfmann divides her oeuvre into three clear topics, zooming in and out in her extremely detailed work. It gives you the experience of seeing the work in reality, when you search to find grip on the work itself.

About the Artist
Katrin Korfmann’s is an artist working on the cutting edge of photography, post-photography and installation art. Attracted to the spectacles of everyday life, which often occur in the public space, she captures people in metropolitan motion. A tension emerges as her work oscillates between stillness and movement, creating a fresh perspective on busy urban settings as portraits of contemporary transitions. With a critical and playful attitude towards the world around her, and explicitly in relation to contemporary visual culture, Korfmann uses a myriad of self-photographed images to investigate their historical, social and visual context. A simultaneous sense of distance and proximity arises as she depicts realities that neither the artist’s eye nor the camera could ever have grasped. Her images are both an interpretation of her experience and of collective social memory.
