Untitled (from Sub Rosa)

ARTIST STATEMENT

In order to tell my stories, I frequently use a combination of portraits and still lifes. The picture of the birdhouse that I chose for 20×200 is part of the series <a href =“http://www.birthepiontek.com/work/sub_rosa”>Sub Rosa. This work deals with two subjects that have always been of great interest to me: innocence and adolescence.

The intimate moments captured in the portraits of Sub Rosa are a means of contrasting the innocent vulnerabiliy of youth with otherwise rather somber settings.

My pictures are an exploration of what lies beneath the surface; through them I intend to create feelings of tension and uneasiness by hinting at secrets that never actually reveal themselves.
