Marvin Systermans, Germany

Glaube, Sitte, Heimat (Faith, Custom, Home)

In my work, I was concerned with the structural change in places where the citizens of the city of Arnsberg and the surrounding area meet and gather. The result is an aesthetic investigation and collection of places that stand between tradition and modernity. Places which are equally endeavors to preserve, as well as to meet the new needs of a structurally and demographically changing region. I developed the series in October 2016 within the framework of a project of the Westfalenpost, a regional daily newspaper in Südwestfalen, Germany. Some of the photos have been published in the newspaper but not the whole series.
