At the age of 14, my grandfather Valentin created on April 20, 1880 a herbarium. He carefully pasted dried plants and labeled them.

At the age of 14, my grandfather Valentin created on April 20, 1880 a herbarium. He carefully pasted dried plants and labeled them. For 140 years, pressed flowers and plants now lay in this notebook, gradually changing their colors and strengthening their structures through the drying process. Time created works of art of unique beauty. The passing of these living creatures was thus prolonged. Once again they rebel in all their beauty against the transience of all being.
These pressed plants inspired me to make art. I photographed all these plants, edited the digital data in Photoshop, enhanced colors and contrasts, created enlargements in image details. Photo works of art were created, which may somewhat outlast the ephemeral nature of all material existence.

Franz Hümpfner is a well-known photographer. He always tries to convey the reality hidden behind the visible world through his photographs. For him, a camera is a tool for his artistic work, similar to how a painter uses brushes and paint to create his works.

He employs both analog and digital techniques. "A photograph requires the feel of paper," he says, adding that "the fleeting representation on the screen cannot convey the sensual quality of a photograph." He also creates Zen or Wabisabi photography, which can express themes such as the beauty, transience, and imperfection of everything that exists particularly well due to its simplicity. He also discussed this type of photography theoretically in his book "Photoartfolio 1 - Wabi Sabi Photography."

According to Franz Hümpfner, "A limited edition print has the same artistic quality as an open edition photograph. A photograph with artificial limitations has the quality of a stock that is speculating on rising value." This is the reason why he offer his photography in an open edition.
