Mit dem Lomography Supersampler quer durch Mallorca unterwegs: Ein Reisetagebuch [German]

By Rainer Strzolka

Rainer Strzolka mainly works with photography. By creating situations and breaking the passivity of the spectator, Strzolka makes work that generates diverse meanings. Associations and meanings collide. Space becomes time and language becomes image.His photos question the conditions of appearance of an image in the context of contemporary visual culture in which images, representations and ideas normally function. By studying sign processes, signification and communication, he focuses on the idea of 'public space' and more specifically on spaces where anyone can do anything at any given moment: the non-private space, the non-privately owned space, space that is economically uninteresting.His works are based on inspiring situations: visions that reflect a sensation of indisputability and serene contemplation, combined with subtle details of odd or eccentric, humoristic elements. In a search for new methods to 'read the city', he wants the viewer to become part of the art as a kind of added component. Art is entertainment: to be able to touch the work, as well as to interact with the work is important.His works are often about contact with architecture and basic living elements. Energy (heat, light, water), space and landscape are examined in less obvious ways and sometimes developed in absurd ways. Rainer Strzolka currently lives and works in Brela, Croatia.
