Diptych
Stefan Heyne is a magician of light. Spectral colors are filtered and blurred by him - and thus transformed into their nuances. The beauty of the colors and the newly found tones unfold in a new section of the picture. Color tones that move vibrantly through the atmosphere are captured in their perfection on the paper.

Alexandra Wolframm's work focuses on the existential relationship between man and nature and the interaction between vision and imagination. Her focus here is on the aspect of time about human existence and the indifference of nature to the latter.

Her works were recently on view, amongst others, in the frame of „EMOP - Europäischer Monat der Fotografie“ at Salon am Moritzplatz, Berlin (2023), at Galerie im Körnerpark, Berlin (2022), at KOHTA Helsinki (2021) and Museum Villa Rot, Burgrieden (2020) and are part of the collections of Kunstmuseum Stuttgart, Bundesumweltministerium and Deutsche Bank, to name a few.
