'The subject of this work is train travel from an emotional perspective and an experienced observation. I created a composed collection of selected peculiarities and characteristics of train travel as well as atmospheric images and moods of a train journey. I translated self-experienced feelings and perceptions into a visual language, sometimes complemented by short texts. I have found and created images that convey what I believe makes up the train journey and, in my eyes, makes it so beautiful. I wanted to achieve this without having to show the train or depict the passenger in each image in a concrete way. The result is a work that tells the story from the perspective of the feeling and therefore speaks to the feeling of the viewer, an associative and atmospheric work.'
