Baumskalps { 17 images } Created 2 Jan 2017
Oliver Stahmann's abstract photography is a testament to his keen eye for detail and his ability to find art in unexpected places. His series "Baumskalps," created between 2005 and 2012, features images captured from forests and parks around the world, including Germany, Peru, Argentina, France, Turkey, Spain, and Brazil.
Despite the variety of locations, all of Stahmann's works in this series are presented in a 16:9 format. Through his lens, the tree barks that he photographed take on a new life, with textures, patterns, and colors that might remind viewers of abstract paintings. It's easy to miss the beauty of a tree's bark when walking through a forest, but Stahmann's work invites us to take a closer look, to appreciate the intricate details that often go unnoticed.
The "Baumskalps" series is a tribute to the beauty of nature and the importance of taking the time to appreciate the world around us. Stahmann's images offer a fresh perspective on something as mundane as tree bark, and demonstrate the transformative power of art to change the way we see the world.
