Untouched Reality


German photographer Julian Faulhaber captures public spaces in the moments between their construction and when they are opened for public use.

He say’s about his motives “I think these geometric spaces are shaped in a pure form. In combination with the newness of the material, we’re creating this lifestyle, which is so characteristic for our time. The packaging is much more important than the content of a product.”

His long-exposure photos, which remain unedited after developing and for which he uses only available lighting, look unreal and retouched. But what does it mean to say that reality looks retouched?
