Besenhorster Sandberge fairies



Besenhorster Sandberge ruin area is in the outskirts of Hamburg.
In the days of second world war there was a nazi gunpowder factory with it's slave workers. 
The factory was bombed in the war and today the ruins are surrounded by forest.  
In this picturescue project  these forest ruins were photographed and renamed with
romantic names in the spirit of Schubert and other important german romantics.

The photographing project was a part of the exhibition and research project
 "Mapping a City, Hamburg Kartierung"  and it was shown atKunstverein in Hamburg
