Clemens Jahn

Most of my pictures are on-the-go photographs. I suppose the moments or situations captured initially originate from an inner discourse which consists of how I perceive things, my personal memories, associations and desires. Eventually, however, the image itself will ‘prevail over the thing it is an image of’. Which means that I don’t try to document but much rather create an imagery detached from its origin leaving as much space as possible for the viewer’s imagination and interpretation.
The images shown were taken in London in 2010.
Clemens Jahn studies at the University of the Arts (Universität der Künste) Berlin.
