Becoming One Chapter I explores the behaviour of people at well-known historic and cultural sites. The focus is on actions, the performative nature of which the acting people are not aware of. None of these actions are staged. They all are authentic moments in which the experience and understanding of the locations matters more than mere observation. With some distance and in a humorous manner, the observer is given the opportunity to visualise action patterns in the appropriation of locations – an ephemeral becoming one of the people and the site, which has both a ritual and authentic nature.
The photographs in this series were taken in seven European countries and fifteen cities – including Barcelona, Berlin, Braunschweig, Bremen, Cologne, Copenhagen, Madrid, Oslo, Paris, Schwerin, Sirmione, Stockholm, Stralsund, Toledo and Zülpich.
