The photographic work Über allen Wipfeln ist Ruh' shows various Christmas trees wrapped in transport nets. They are depicted in their original size on a white background. Here the decorated and magnificently burgeoning Christmas tree, symbol of a family festival, is constricted, its desolation and isolation pointing to the illusionary nature of the idyll.
(Robert F. Hammerstiel)
