Christoph Kohlmann - Weltreise, Self published, 2015, Berlin

 

Swiss bound softcover, edition of 200 (numbered), signed. Text and design by Christoph Kohlmann.

The work "Weltreise" (World Tour) is dealing with the perception of everyday spaces in a wealthy society shaped by digital communication. Gentle social criticism and a good amount of admiration for the world go hand in hand and lead to dry images full of subtle wonders. A world tour - mostly photographed in Berlin and it's surroundings - sure there's a bit of irony in it. But the title is also raising sincere philosophic questions: Where's the everyday ending and where's the journey starting? Isn't "the world" around "here", too? Can and should something only be fascinating if it's unfamiliar and exotic?
