inspired by angelas family history - her great-great-grandfather was an art carver, 

i used the displays of that time to show her breathtakingly delicate and beautiful work.

W wie Weihnachten

W wie Weihnachen

my Christmas W is from Sweden, one of very few letters that have been cut so meticulously by hand, with the rust of time.

for me the picture that my Christmas may be like it will be, with all the weather that belongs to it.

And a grater in form of a turtle from India, which I appreciate so much because love and care for material and details becomes visible. 

it is used to hollow out and rub coconuts .

for the next days I wish you time and leisure to enjoy it, 

for the new year I wish everyone the right tools to fully enjoy the pleasures of the new year,

mein Weihnachts W ist aus Schweden, einer von ganz wenigen Buchstaben, die so minutiös handgesägt wurden mit dem Rost der Zeit .

für mich das Bild, dass mein Weihnachten sein darf wie es wird, mit allen Witterungen, die dazu gehören.

Und eine Reibe in Form einer Schildkröte aus Indien, die ich so schätze weil in ihr Liebe und Sorgfalt für Material und Details sichtbar werden. 

Mit ihr werden Kokosnüsse ausgehöhlt und gerieben.

Für die nächste Tage wünsche ich Allen Zeit und Musse, sie zu geniessen, 

für das neue Jahr wünsche ich Allen die richtigen Werkzeuge um die Genüsse  des neuen Jahres voll auskosten zu können,

löwen-manufactur

concept, styling + photography : dietlind wolf

online and print: löwen-manufactur

i admit , it was kind of my best hidden secret,  that i am producing since nearly 2 years  the whole range of  the wonderful Löwen-Manufactur in lübeck,
and that i got the chance to create the picture language for a pharmacy product,

maybe because i fell deeply in love with the man behind, marcus niendorf, 

who did invent  this realy helping oil mixtures.

10 years ago he started the manufactur in his pharmacy,  

with the amazing idea of combining old knowledge in 4rth generation as pharmacist und the modern aspect of using only pure aetherical oils.

you have to see his pharmacy, its one of the most beautiful , and in one of the eldest houses in lübeck/ germany.

 since may we are happily married:-)  so the collaboration will grow even more....if you ever are nearby, come and check out, its worth it every look every smell, and it works ! Loewen-manufactur.de

palmstraw

in print : summer issue 2017 sweet paul magazine

Years ago I found this little straw bloom at a flea market in belgium,
And inspired me to produce a straw story .
   i added palm, inspired through my travels to srilanka and the story of my husband, that his mother

 who grew up in India, made the straw stars of palm, and also corn leaves, when i tasted the first time, tamales in mexico. 

last roses

i just got the beautiful roses today from Hermans garden, 

the last ones in last sunlight,

now they are frozen to be destilled..

when i send Hermann the pictures of his roses, i wrote:

so beautiful beings, your roses...
and got a beautiful poem in return , which makes so much sense:

A Nothing
we were, are now, and ever 
shall be, blooming:
the Nothing-, the No-One`s-Rose

Typography + Styling workshop

Typography and Styling
a full-day workshop with Dietlind Wolf / Hamburg
and guest speaker Elina Frumerman / San Francisco

using typography in styling and storytelling

spend a day with us exploring various methods of marrying type and image

our workshop will focus on three specific approaches:

1. creating typography: using props to create letterforms in a photograph
2. letterforms as objects: using cut typography to create images and compositions
3. layering with type: adding type over an image to change a photograph's mood or meaning 
(including a quick tutorial on digital image scanning and manipulation)

 
elina frumerman is an amazing artist, working with type and pictures with such an ease and beauty.
her books are eye treasures. see some of her spectacular work, attached below.

we are so much looking forward to sharing what we love, to inspire you and expand the way you approach your own work.

our workshop will be led in English and be held in the berkentienhouse, 
a beautiful house in lübeck known for centuries for handcrafts in glass.
