Berlin flat white is a photographic essay on the government district of Berlin. It explores the relationship between men and architecture. The human element is both insignificant in size and at the same untouched by the rather monumental building. Berlin flat white challenges the standard approach to architecture photography by not trying to create a 3 dimensional space. For me the human figure is the only valid reference. Highlighting the "sameness" of modern architecture one subject is purposefully repeated in slight variations as a Leitmotiv.
