Heidi Specker
Born 1962 in Damme, Germany, Heidi Specker studied Design, Photography and Film in Bielefeld and at the Academy of Visual Arts in Leipzig, Germany. The artist is currently based in Berlin, exhibiting throughout Germany. Heidi Specker's photographs are dedicated to modern architecture its constituents. In an archive-like manner, she takes pictures of modernist buildings, mainly throughout Berlin, assembling them to overviews of stereotype facades and structures. In her works she reverses the processes of architecture: as opposed to starting with a design in order to develop a model for a building, she takes an existing building as a starting point and simplifies it to arrive at a model-like object.
