Wolfgang Tillmans

Wolfgang Tillmans is a German photographer whose work moves freely between documentary photography, abstraction, and everyday observation. In his practice, he combines very different types of images—ranging from intimate snapshots to carefully constructed compositions—and presents them without hierarchy. For Tillmans, the act of looking itself becomes central: how images are seen, placed, and experienced in relation to each other.

What inspires me in his approach is the openness of his practice and the way he treats photography as something fluid rather than fixed. His work connects to my own interest in perception and the construction of reality through images. The way he brings together different ways of seeing encourages me to think about how meaning changes depending on context, sequencing, and interpretation.
