Between Worlds – Dance with Light
Hans Bauer has been involved for half of his life professionally with all aspects of photography, design, and perceptive psychology. These aspects play a role in his pictures and do not necessarily correspond to classical photographic principles and traditional modes of formal representation. Movement alters reality and creates for moments a type of existence between worlds that we are barely able to perceive through a prelearnt pattern of image recognition saved in our brain. These states of existence between worlds are of interest to the artist, and so he started to experiment with lengthily exposure. Light in connection with movement alters reality. It can create new realities for moments in time. Many of these pictures also create through this mode of photography, like graphic art and painting, an expressionistic or impressionistic sense, a type of existence between worlds. In doing so he pushed the limits of photography. Colours and forms begin to dissolve and create, in connection with lengthily exposure, movement and filter technique, their own dialogue, which abstract and alter the concrete and reach into the realm of painting. This alters the image of reality and allows us, in connection with moving light, to see things in a new way. For seconds these light images are actually real and are perceived in this way, but admittedly not stored in the brain. On the following page are some examples of images of the link between science and technology in the domain of existence between worlds.
