Tired of Everything by Jürgen Sobkowiak

Jürgen Sobkowiak (born 1970) is a self-taught freelance photo artist from Germany. From a young age he was interested in art and engaged in drawing, photography and literature. Due to drastic life events, he began to concretize his own photo-artistic language only in early 2010. For his work, he is influenced by surrealism, the Gothic literature and the art movement dada. Artists like Francesca Woodman, Man Ray, Helena Almeida, Jürgen Klauke and Joanna Piotrowska influenced him the most. In his works, he primarily deals with the interaction of man, space and object and he provokes the eternal question of his own identity. Always dressed in black, the artist himself appears in the black-and-white-stagings and interacts with rooms, walls and everyday objects.
