The personal work of Christof Wagner stands for an often
unconventional interpretation of reality and the moment.
His pictures originate from visions, impressions,
experiences and feelings, and are the results of his unique and acute view of things and moments. Christof’s pictures emit a special magic. On the one
hand, they comprise elements of coincidence, spontaneity and the transitory. On
the other hand, they display clear, well-considered structures, detailed
perfection and monumental moods.
In addition to his commercial photography and his commissioned works, he devotes himself to using less complicated methods to capture momentary interactions of light, time and space.
The quality of captured light and the reflection, the clear tracks of time form a visual language that makes a picture something living, something special. "This is my way to approach the viewer, giving inspiration and creating new visions".
Photography is a pure passion for Christof Wagner. This passion is revealed in the mix of psychology, technology and subjects he selects in his work.
