The solitaire as an abstraction: This series captures the modern architecture of an urban facade in a dynamic interplay of light and shadow. Clear lines, geometric structures, and unusual perspectives emphasize the building’s aesthetic and energy. Particularly fascinating is the way geometry interacts with the environment: reflections and contrasts between architecture and sky add depth to the photographs and invite viewers to explore. Through carefully chosen angles and framing, both the rigor and the lightness of the architecture are revealed.

Personal Note: The Solitaire as an Abstraction was created on Father’s Day, May 29, 2025, in Berlin-Halensee and is dedicated to my father, K. Shahmirzadi.
