Artist Feature - Hansi Herbig “The old man and the sea”

post_hansi_herbig

Some people collect stamps. Some people build lampshades out of used Chinese chopsticks. Some people in Great Britain’s Brighton meet to feel salt water on their skin, no matter if it’s rainy, sunny, windy, warm or cold. 365 days a year, every morning and every evening, since 1860, people like them experience nature with all its power and manage to step in the element not with fear but with joy. Some people are sea swimmers.

German photographer Hansi Herbig is well known for his works with water in another state of aggregation. Even though he’s a pioneer in snowboard photography, his take on this self-described “non-athletic” club almost makes you wonder if you didn’t smell the ocean for just one second.
