Andreas Franke - Underwater Photography Exhibition:
Austrian photographer Andreas Franke took a diving expedition down on the hulk of the artificial reef General Hoyt S. Vandenberg located 100 feet below sea-level. Having documented the trip and the shipwreck site, Franke digitally manipulated the images he captured to depict surreal every day scenes from the past, taking place in the underwater locale. The series of 12 photographs entitled 'life below the surface' can be viewed at the location of the sunken ship of which the images take place.
Andreas Franke on his work: 'In my photography I try to construct illusionistic worlds. I like to see things from a different angle and I try to create new kind of views. Thereby taking images of a sunk ship and bringing life back to the ship by filling these images with stories was always very interesting for me. I finally found the perfect stage and the last obstacle to realise my idea was removed, by diving the Vandenberg. My work is always based on a strict concept, which is photographically and technically perfectly implemented. Every little detail is part of a precisely arranged production. There is no space left for fortuity.'
