The photographic works by Claus Stolz are photography in the literal sense - in this case they are time exposures written by the sun itself. It is not the reflection of the objects, but the direct rays of the sun which form a work of destruction. All variations from the work cycle “Sun“are influenced by the process of combustion – round to oval, traces of time burned into the respective film emulsion – depending on the exposure time, a few seconds up to one hour. During the exposure, the camera is fixed on a tripod. The radiation intensity of the sun, softened in some works or interrupted by clouds during the exposure as well as the film material used and the settings of the camera determine the motive. The course of the sun and its path generated during the rotation of the earth is captivated on celluloid during the exposure time.
