DARK LIGHT (SE)
Hendrik Paul


“It was a calm that whispered cosmic secrets, a stillness that beckoned me to close my eyes and listen with the subtlest parts of my soul.” _Hendrik Paul

At the edge of a rugged coastline, in the quiet darkness of night, Hendrik Paul confronts the unseen aspects of existence. In the presence of vast nature, the desire to know gradually fades, and the artist begins to surrender to the darkness with a camera in hand. “DARK LIGHT” captures the process of transforming personal suffering and turmoil into transcendence through photography. These abstract black-and-white images powerfully reveal an explosive yet quiet universe of light emerging from deep darkness. Through his lens, we glimpse timeless moments of the cosmos that words cannot describe. This book leads us to the profound depths of the soul, playing the rhythm of life that moves between sky and earth, life and death.

The special edition consists of Option A, which includes two gelatin silver prints, and Option B or C, which includes one of the two prints each.
