Here is another photo of my photo series about the iron belt of Bilbao. I did this analogue series this year during my 6 month artist residency in Bilbao.

About one and a half years ago I bought my Mamiya 7  analogue camera, because I wanted to get to know the world of analogue photography. Now i started my first official analogue series about the “iron belt of  Bilbao”. I walk around through the forests around Bilbao looking for remains of the belt. The series is going to be in black.

looking thew my images I found this image I made in Bilbao at the beach. I really like the combination of the colors.

It started out to be a very beautiful day, but then suddenly the weather changed, maybe I hadn´t got the best views, but the ambiance was just fantastic, melancholic and misterious.

The horses up in the “mountain” reminded me a lot of the cows we have in austria. There was no fence, they where just  freely walking around with huge bells around their necks.

Yesterday was such a beautiful sunny day that we decided to go to the beach of Plentzia, which is like 40 minutes far from Bilbao by metro.

The sand at Plentzia is very delicate, it makes me remember my childhood, playing in the garden making sand castles all day long.

Tom, Franz and I made sand portraits of each other which I want to share with you!

A trip to Mundaka. It was at low tide and the fish at the beach of mundaka looked like forming abstract paintings to me.
