Monumental, elemental, transcendental – Marius Tegethoff‘s photographic work presents virtually unseen, yet mysteriously familiar views: imagery of supernatural scale.
The viewer is immersed in skyscapes of color, space, and distance. While absolute dimensions remain diffuse, the flow of proportions always seems clear and natural, intuitively uncovering a universal, existential principle.
Similar to the meditative marine horizons of Japanese artist Hiroshi Sugimoto or even Gerhard Richter, Tegethoff’s unique pictorial language creates a beauty of subtle ambiguity in a world of light, air, water, and ice.
Marius Tegethoff is 44, lives in Berlin, works as a writer and photographer and loves to fly airplanes. All pictures were taken from 10.000 to 40.000 feet altitude.
