This is a page from an album entitled Bochum Kazerne, made with black and white photographs by an anonymous artist. I imagine the photographer moving around the Kazerne looking for the right shot of each building. Squinting through the camera lens, probably getting cold hands on a cloudy day. Each image captures a particular facet of the Kazerne. Look at how the artist has chosen a different angle to give a unique perspective on each architectural structure. The dark grey sky creates an eerie atmosphere. You almost feel like you’re in the picture with the photographer. The artist prompts us to consider how we engage with architecture. It's as if they're asking, "What do we notice? What do we overlook? What do we remember?" They have a lot to say.
