Christopher Berwing
Biografie:
In Berlin, Christopher began his relationship with photography looking up from a baby changing table set up haphazardly in his father's dark room. In the following years, Christopher became a passionate troublemaker, often disturbing the adults working on their photographs. At this time, Christopher did not realize the profound effect these early experiences would have upon his later life as a photographer. Curious by nature, Christopher explored other forms of artistic expression, until he realized that in his heart, still being stoned on the chemical fumes of his childhood darkroom.
Werkbeschrieb:
Christopher's photographs explore post-Soviet design, architecture and life in Armenia and Georgia. His ongoing project takes him to sites that can be tough to find or access. This work highlights the contrast between once-futuristic visions and present-day reality, while inviting reflection on the impermanence of history and the fragility of progress. Christopher's images not only preserve the physical form of these spaces but also open a dialogue on the broader social and political changes that led to their current state.
