Storyline: The location is an old, empty departmentstore in my hometown Görlitz, which was also the set for the Hotel for Wes Andersons Hollywood Production "The Grand Budapest Hotel". Here in the image you can see the unrenovated part. The whole series, that I shot there, is inspired by Stefan Zweigs great book 'The World of Yesterday' (Wes Anderson dedicated his movie Stefan Zweig, too). In this work Zweig writes about the security of old times and the deep loss of it. This mood of being afraid I wanted to show through my photos.
