The Turn


Piezography on aluminum
size: 262 x 178 cm, comprising 40 prints, each measuring 31 x 34 cm
year: 2025

 

In The Turn (2025), Katrin Korfmann plays with time and movement. A body spins, captured in forty moments of a jump. The work reorders time: not a snapshot, but a stacking of movements. The man in a cream-coloured shirt turns 180 degrees against the deep blue sky. From afar, the image appears abstract, the human form barely visible. Only up close does the detailed spin come to life in hyper-resolution, where the movement creates its own world. Korfmann explores time, structure, and chaos. The contrast between the rapid spin in reality and the silent, static photographs creates tension. No moment is definitive; the movement is always in flux, control continually deferred. The work invites viewers to look beyond the visible and to understand the complexity of time and perception. The monumental piece consists of forty fragments that together form a single whole.
