In the series Erscheinen um zu verschwinden I use my own photographic material from Berlin, Vienna, Hong Kong and Guangzhou in southern China. Here, too, the glass appears on the one hand as an ephemeral light image that opens up the pictorial space and makes it permeable, and on the other hand as a body that itself becomes an architectural element. A kind of liquefaction of the city emerges and solid, monumental buildings are broken up into a fragile structure. This is how I transfer the whirring of the big city into my works.
