About Open Your Eyes Art Photography
Open Your Eyes is an art photography series that uses plastic wrap as its visual device. The shape and the material of the wrap were formed by the wind and by the resistance of the photographer. The resulting forms suggest human or animal figures, in a way similar to clouds in the sky. Each viewer sees a different character, so the series relies on personal imagination. The photographs were taken in Lower Austria in January 2022 with a high-resolution medium format camera in natural light, without flash. The digital work was completed in Vienna one month later.

- Design Challenge
- For Liebert, a good photo needs a good idea first. Whether advertising campaign-, product-, landscape- or portraitphotos - before he presses the shutter button for the first time, the technical process is based on a creative concept. A concept that should also inspire the creativity of the viewers.

- Inspiration

- Project Duration

- Operation Flow
- The question "What do you see?" should be a stimulus for the viewers creativity and thats the job of a photographer.
