A German born photographer who explains his approach: ‘I was interested in the possibility of the photographic image revealing the different character or the ‘sound’ of the place. I learned that certain areas of the city have an emblematic character; they express the city’s structure. How can the atmosphere of one place be so different from another?’ (Bezzola et al (2010)). Struth in ‘unconscious places 1’ focused on finding places of the city that ‘express most clearly the nature of the city’.
