i have been thrown back into childhood memories when i came across MISCHA LEINKAUF'S photo series „endogenous error terms“.
as kids we were discovering the era close to our homes in a tiny village in the middle of nowhere. climbing trees, walking through forests & fields, following the courses of the rivers and creeks. until there was a underground pipe. there were rumors: "take care, there are sharp wires inside" or "there is a junction in the middle!“ it was a dare to step into the dark hole. the acoustics echoing. the slow acclimatisation of the eyes sensing the surface. the light reflections when we reached the end of the tunnel. still hidden, safe, an invisible observer of the world outside.
thanks to
@mischaleinkauf for letting me paint my interpretation of his motiv! danke!

about MISCHA LEINKAUF'S work: Having a place of refuge, safety and retreat is generally regarded as a basic physiological human need, which is the basis for the development of higher human motivations. From this origin Mischa Leinkauf began an intensive exploration of lifeless architectural structures that lie underground. While he stayed in these upside-down areas of the city, Leinkauf’s perspective changed from exo- to endogenous. A process that originates from within an organism or a cell. The womb of the city. Endogenous Error Terms captures moments of being inside these left alone architectural spaces in Japan, Mongolia, Russia, Germany, Greece, Austria and Italy.
