>
> For the Group of Eight summit, Heiligendamm was turned into a
> high-security fortress. 7.5 miles long and 8 feet tall, a fence was
> designed to protect the leaders of the world's eight richest
> countries. The G8 summit in Heiligendamm costed a round 92 million
> euros just for security.
>
> "Fortress Heiligendamm" is a photo series of 3 parts: "The Village",
> "The Woods" and "The Sea".
> It explores the phenomenon of fortification, its effect on the
> landscape and the sureal fear in the Village "Bad Doberan".
>
> In opposite to photo journalism I decided to shoot silent images and
> to use an analog middle-format camera with no tele zoom lens, no
> flash and no auto focus.
