Ingo Rasp

Ingo Rasp is an award winning German aerial landscape photographer, living and working in Chur-CH.

In his work he focuses on the geological history and processes that formed the Alps and the resulting structure of the alpine landscape – often under the aspect of transience due to the ongoing climate change.

As our environment is constantly transforming under the impact of the elements which is symbolic of the universal process of becoming and decaying, each of his photographs is an effort to make a photographic record of the temporary existence and the evanescence of single moments.

In his approach he interprets the resulting structures as shapes, lines and textures which, at first glance, lets the photographs resemble as abstract paintings or pencil drawings.

The great driving force behind his work is his deep fascination for the different formation processes of our planet that shape our surroundings every day.

His work is dealing exclusively with alpine structures of the Swiss Mountains. It offers an unexpected view on what looks so familiar to us, and at the same time surprises with new and previously unseen perspectives.

Selected prints of his work were exhibited at the architecture Biennale in Venice in 2018.
