More than moments, 2012-2013
An art project by André Wagner for Mobimo Management AG in Zürich
In spring 2012, the young German photo artist André Wagner has been invited by MOBIMO to photograph the neighbourhood under construction located “at the Pfingstweidpark“ in Zürich-West. On the trail of the company`s idea, Wagner artistically and visually explored the area in the transition period to a vibrant urban neighbourhood.
The reflection of time serves Wagner as a guideline. Not only the present is to be captured but it should also simultaneously serve as future documents of the changing contemporary happenings. So each work contains the three basic levels of time: past / present / future – extended by the meaning layers of history / development / progress.
The selected artistic method in the form of long exposure times with its unique artistic character makes processes of change visible. Created photographs with stunning details evoke memories and have a special narrative moment. In addition, the motives exude a magical effect and capture the multi-layered sentiment as well as a unique atmosphere of the new quarter.
