Sabine Wenzel manages to capture the rich variety of different atmospheres to be found in forests. These powerful images have a tendency to bring back the observer's memories of long forgotten childhood fantasies with their associated feelings of security, joy, humility and fear. Home would therefore also have been an appropriate title for this body of work.

The successful professional photographer, who studied at the HGB in Leipzig, has managed to create a series of works with a lightness of touch that while ignoring certain conventions uses to the full the breadth of experience achieved from her commissioned work, especially that of a documentary nature. Sabine Wenzel's works are the result of an experimental, dynamic process and have a wonderful painterly quality.

Printed onto canvas 85 x 125 this impression is reinforced.

"Whereas other photographers are satisfied with images of trees, Sabine Wenzel is content with nothing less than the forest itself."

Prof. K. Honnef
