Thomas Riess: Time, Spirit, Existence
Thomas Riess is a sensitive observer of the world, the people around him and the foreseeable and unanticipated circumstances that bring them together. He is a chronicler of events; he describes them and their course, formulating everything without hesitation to a pointed anecdote. With an analytical approach, he immerses himself in the wave of everyday excitements of our time and deals with common observation patterns.
He tells stories with his creations, whose protagonist – time itself - is given an appropriate stage - the recording of the Zeitgeist in a dynamic moment, bundled with artistic intellect, which nevertheless leaves space for the self-interpretation of the viewer - that makes Thomas Riess works so unique.
Thomas Riess works with photographic templates in his works - he collects sensually perceived images, such as beach sand in every timewise information wave of everyday life and lets this into his positions. There is hardly any work of his in which he does not let existential thought into.
