Tim Klausing’s photographs seem to be taken from social visions of the future, with suburbs appearing so very unreal and beautiful at the same time. The brutality of the buildings, of the frictions between landscape and architecture, is enhanced by the crass artificialness of the colors. The artist actually derived his motifs from nearby urban places, which have been given up on in terms of aesthetics. They are interspersed with traffic routes, industrial exploitation has left its traces. No-places under black skies, they have become a central topic of Tim Klausing’s disturbing pictures.
