Hans-Peter Feldmann — Mädchen mit Schatten
Hans-Peter Feldmann

Mädchen mit Schatten

Hans Peter Feldmann's "Mädchen mit Schatten" is a gelatin silver print featuring a photograph with carefully constructed cutouts that create a interplay between the photographic image and negative space. The work exemplifies Feldmann's conceptual approach to photography, where he manipulates the physical print itself to generate new meanings and visual relationships. By removing portions of the print, Feldmann transforms a straightforward photographic document into a more complex artistic statement about representation and absence.
