Eugenia Maximova: Kitchen Stories from the Balkans

12 Nov

Die Fotos von Eugenia Maximova vereinen vieles in sich. Sie sind Bericht einer Reise, Dokumentation des Alltäglichen und Zeugnis einer von Zerrissenheit geprägten Kultur. Die Bilder in „Kitchen Stories from the Balkans“ sind in Albanien, Bulgarien, Bosnien und Herzegowina, Kroatien, Kosovo, Mazedonien, Montenegro, Serbien und Rumänien entstanden. Dennoch vereint die Fotografin ihr Werk in einem Gebiet, das sie als „The Balkans“ versteht.

Gemeint ist kein durch Grenzen abgestecktes Gebiet, eine bestimmte Gruppe oder der Traum einer vereinten Nation, sondern viel mehr die kulturellen Gemeinsamkeiten der Bevölkerung, die sich nicht einfach aufteilen lässt.

Auch formal will das Buch in keine einzelne Kategorie passen, denn es lässt sich nicht klar als Bildband oder Kochbuch definieren. Die Verbindung zwischen diesen beiden Kategorien erinnert den fotografischen Denker an detailliert inszenierte Aufnahmen präparierter Mahlzeiten, künstlichen Dampf und Farbstoffe, die sich mit satten Farben in die edel anmutenden Kochbücher renommierter Köche einfügen. Oder an Bilder von charmant selbstgemachten Gerichten, die auf rustikalen Holzbrettern zwischen groben Gewürzen für kreative Food-Blogs arrangiert werden.

Ein voller Küchentisch

Um in den visuellen Genuss solcher Gerichte kommen zu können, führt „Kitchen Stories from the Balkans“ den Leser selbst in die Küche. Der hintere Teil des Buches ist gefüllt mit traditionellen Rezepten, die die Fotografin auf ihrer Reise gesammelt hat und die Menschen über verschiedenste Ländergrenzen hinweg verbinden.

Der Augenschmaus wird so zum Teil einer sinnlichen Erfahrung von Geschmack und Geruch. Die Rezepte, neben dem Hinweis auf die Region, der sie entstammen, sind illustrativ gepaart mit den Tischdecken, die sich in den Küchen finden. Kätzchen, Blumen, Spitze und Gemüse auf Karomuster mögen als Kitsch verschrien sein, aber der Ansatz wird humorvoll deutlich gemacht: Man begegnet sich bei Tisch.

Eugenia Maximova nimmt uns Betrachter hinein in alltägliche Begegnungen ihrer Reise. Sie zeigt jene privaten Räume, die besonders wichtig sind für familiäres Zusammenleben: Küchen. Als Ort der Zubereitung der täglichen Mahlzeiten ist die Küche erfüllt von Dampf und Röstaromen, sie ist oftmals der Platz, an dem die Familie zwischen alltäglichen Verpflichtungen zusammen kommt.

Die Küche eines Hauses wird so zum Ort der Begegnung und der Gemeinschaft, durch gemeinsames Kochen, Essen, Austauschen, durch geteiltes Leben. Diese Schauplätze von Beziehung und Alltagskultur spielen die Hauptrolle in den Bildern.

Eine Buchseite mit abgebildetem Herd

Die Aufnahmen der Räume verraten viel über deren Bewohner, auch ohne je eine Person zu zeigen. Bügeleisen zeugen von täglicher Hausarbeit, Tee- und Kaffeekannen von geselligem Beisammensein. Ein Radio untermalt das Familienleben mit Musik oder berichtet, wie die Zeitung auf dem Regal, über aktuelle Ereignisse. Es stehen Blumen auf dem Tisch, Kräuter auf den Fensterbänken, die Wände sind dekoriert. Es sind nicht nur Räume, es ist Heimat.

Mein westeuropäisches Auge romantisiert die Spitzentischdecken, Gasherde und Blumentapeten, sie erinnern mich an das Elternhaus meiner Großeltern. Die malerische Bildästhetik unterstützt diese romantische Sicht auf Küchen, deren Einrichtung zugleich zeitlos und wie aus vergangener Zeit wirkt. Die Worte des frühromantischen Schriftstellers Novalis beschreiben treffend, welchen gedanklichen und emotionalen Vorgang die Bilder in mir anstoßen:

Indem ich dem Gemeinen einen hohen Sinn, dem Gewöhnlichen ein geheimnisvolles Ansehen, dem Bekannten die Würde des Unbekannten, dem Endlichen einen unendlichen Schein gebe, so romantisiere ich es.

Eine Buchseite mit abgebildetem Waschbecken

Ein Herd

Es ist also fragwürdig, inwieweit meine gefärbte Perspektive zum Alltag der Bewohner der abgebildeten Küchen passt. Insofern haben die Bilder einen dokumentarischen Charakter, die an Gemälde erinnernde Bearbeitung und die Kitsch-Romantik (was für mich tatsächlich wertungsfrei, keineswegs abwertend gemeint ist) stehen dem Anspruch der Dokumentarfotografie entgegen.

Mit etwas Abstand kommt die Frage auf, woher der Sinn für Ästhetik kommt, den diese Bilder (in meinem westeuropäischen Denken) ansprechen. Ist es Nostalgie, die Glorifizierung der Vergangenheit, die als Konzept grundsätzlich kritisch zu betrachten ist? Oder eine Sehnsucht nach Einfachheit, danach, Dinge zu reparieren, anstatt sie durch das neueste Modell zu ersetzen?

Wieder bin ich gedanklich bei meinen Großeltern. Die haben oftmals nicht gezögert, etwas „Schönes“, „Altes“ durch etwas Teures, Zeitgemäßes zu ersetzen. Zwischen Alternativlosigkeit und wirtschaftlicher Not bleibt kein Raum für Romantik. Im Nachhinein vielleicht, weshalb mir als Kind eben ein bestimmtes Konsumverhalten vermittelt wurde, das etwa den verbeulten Emaille-Töpfen auf Maximovas Bildern entspricht.

Die Reaktion, in diesen Stillleben voller Leben nur Schönes zu entdecken, ist also auch ein Zeichen der kulturellen und wirtschaftlichen Perspektive, aus der ich die Welt sehe. Sich dessen bewusst zu werden, ist wichtig, um die Beziehung zu verstehen, die man als Betrachter zu diesen Bildern hat, um zu verstehen, warum sie so „schön“ sind.

Das Buch ist hochwertig verarbeitet, das Hardcover hat eine weiche Oberfläche, das haptisch an die Patina an alten Küchenschränken erinnert. Die Gestaltung der Seiten, auf denen wenig bis kein Text zu finden ist, geht einher mit der minimalistischen Bildgestaltung der Fotos, selbst die Seitenzahlen fallen weg. Es finden sich nach einer kurzen Einleitung zwei Kapitel. Unter dem Titel des Buches sind die Fotografien eingeordnet, gefolgt von „On the Balkans Table“, den Kochrezepten und humorvoll-kitschig gestalteten Tischdecken.

Die geborene Bulgarin hat Journalismus und Kommunikationswissenschaft studiert und arbeitet derzeit als freie Fotografin.

Compact Cooking: 15 Modular & Multipurpose Kitchen Designs

16 Jun

[ By Steph in Design & Fixtures & Interiors. ]

MOdular Kitchens Main

Most of us only use our kitchens a couple times daily, so why should they take up an entire room of valuable space? Compact, modular kitchens that can be packed away when not in use or expanded when you want entertain make a lot of sense, especially for the modern urban lifestyle. These 15 concepts range from space-saving wall-mounted kitchens for small spaces to countertop appliances that pack in multiple functions.

Outpost Add-A-Kitchen for the Office

Modular Kitchens Outpost 2

Modular Kitchens Outpost 1

While it was designed specifically with offices in mind, it’s not hard to imagine the Outpost modular kitchen in studio apartments, guest rooms and emergency shelters as well. The two-part system offers storage, individual ‘fridge cubes’, an oven, an induction tea set, a coffee maker and eating surfaces to keep all food-related functions contained in one space rather than spread out all over your co-workers’ desks.

nFridge Modular Refrigerator

Modular Kitchen nFridge 1

Modular Kitchen nFridge 2

Need a little more space in your refrigerator for temporary house guests? Just add an extra cold cube. The NFridge concept, created for the Electrolux Global Design Lab, breaks a fridge down into small cooling components that can be stacked on the ground or mounted to a wall to save space. It’s covered in a soft-touch digital membrane that’s resistant to dust and water, and uses magnetic refrigeration to produce cold more rapidly than conventional refrigerator technology.

Kitchen a la Carte

Modular Kitchens A La Carte 1.jp

Modular Kitchens A La Carte 2

Anywhere with plumbing and electricity can play host to Kitchen A La Carte, which breaks all the major functions of a kitchen down into small suitcase-like packs with wheels. These units can be pulled to a new location and quickly re-assembled.

Elements Modular Kitchen

Modular Kitchens Elements 1

Modular Kitchens Elements 2

Do you like having some shelf space above the stove for spices, or prefer to have your sink right next to the cooktop for easy cleaning? Electrolux Elements allows you to configure the various elements of a kitchen in any way you like, adding lighting, storage, cooking surfaces, refrigerators and other components as desired. The units draw power wirelessly through ‘powerboat’ technology supplied through the wall, which is supplemented with solar energy.

Accordion Expandable Kitchen

Modular Kitchens Accordion 1

Modular Kitchens Accordion 2

A space-saving geometric table hides far more function than you’d expect, stretching out like an accordion to reveal a sink, chopping board and storage for items like glassware and utensils. It takes up very little space when not in use, and many elements have a double purpose, like drawer covers that can be turned over and used as food preparation surfaces.

Rooms on Wheels: Mobile Kitchen, Bedroom & Office Spaces

12 Mar

[ By WebUrbanist in Design & Furniture & Decor. ]

compact modular rooms spaces

A step beyond flip-down beds and foldaway furniture, this series of modular rooms packs whole kitchens, bedrooms and offices into a highly portable form, so much so that they be bought online at stores like Amazon Japan and shipped right to your door.

compact kitchen in box

Consider the possibilities, too, for on-demand residential conversions: with these you can make anything, from a cargo container to an old warehouse, into an instant apartment.

compact office close up

Set on wheels and made narrow when closed, each room-in-a-box can be rolled easily through opening and navigate narrow corridors to arrive at its destination.

compact fold out bedroom

compact modular bedroom

The bedroom unit is the largest – it uses central breakpoints to allow overhead lighting as well as the bed and its supports below to collapse in half then fold up or down into empty spaces in the shell.

compact fold out office

The mid-sized office features interlocking solids and voids to maximize shelving and storage when open. Meanwhile, the wheeled chair below detaches from the primary structure on demand.

compact fold out kitchen

The small kitchen flips up and out to reveal a sink, work surface and hot plate at hip height with space for storage and refrigeration below.

modular moveable rooms boxes

Square footage is a serious commodity in cities like Tokyo and Kyoto, making the four-figure price tag for these units from Atelier OPA (dubbed Kenchikukagu) also a lot more palatable in the right urban context.

22 February, 2014 – Kitchen Stories and Other Realities

23 Feb

Over the years I have had the privilege of working with and shooting with some amazing photographers.  Photography to many of us photographers is like a good game of golf.  We can get out there with our friends shoot images, talk about what a great shot it was and feel bad when we just can’t seem to get the shot.  I find it a lot more staisfying and less frustrating than chasing a ball around and trying to whack it with a stick.  Well, Jackie Ranken takes the game of photography to a new level.  I have had the pleasure of working with Jackie on a number of workshops and discovered as a result a whole new way of seeing.  She is one of the most creative landscape photographers that I have ever met and she has certainly gotten the attention of her fellow Australian and New Zealand photographers when she started entering landscape images into major competitions with flying toasters in them.  

I was shooting with Jackie two years ago and while we were out she found about ten feet of twine.  The rest of the day she took this twine and interjected it into the shots she was making.  She was wrapping bushes with it, dangling it from trees and laying it out on the ground.  I found it totally refreshing to see this.  Later during this trip a number of friends shooting with me stopped at an overlook to shoot a landscape vista and the bottom of the overlook hill was a bunch of old refrigerators, stoves and metal junk. One person in our group couldn’t help themselves and said “I see Jackie was already here”.  

We hope you enjoy Jackie’s article “Kitchen Stories” and Other Realities. Luminous-Landscape will be working with Jackie in New Zealand this December and our Antarctica Workshops in January. If you can join us for these workshops you’ll get a chance to see Jackie in action. 

                                                                                                Kevin Raber, Publisher


 Are you planning on attending this year’s WPPI Trade Show and Convention in Las Vegas March 3-5? If so drop us an email. Kevin and Chris will be there reporting on the show and it would be great to meet some where and say hi.

Disappearing Bed for Tiny Flat Rolls Under Kitchen Floor

21 Jan

[ By Steph in Design & Furniture & Decor. ]

Disappearing Bed Tiny Apartments 1

When you’re trying to pack an entire apartment worth of furniture into just 130 square feet, where do you find the room for a full-sized bed? The answer, in this case, is a place you’d likely never expect: under the kitchen floor. ‘Disappearing Bed’ rolls under a raised platform to go away altogether when floor space is required, or it can be pulled halfway out like a drawer to serve as a couch.

Disappearing Bed Tiny Apartments 2

Architects Julie Nabucet and Marc Baillargeon found every possible inch of space in a tiny micro flat in Paris, hiding storage and extra functions in nearly every corner. Raising the kitchen to accommodate the hidden mattress is not only an incredibly clever solution, but also makes the room feel larger by adding an extra level.

Disappearing Bed Tiny Apartments 3

Disappearing Beds Tiny Apartments 5

A rectilinear table tucks away under a series of under-table cabinets, or can be swung out in front of the couch to act as a coffee table. Desk-height shelving that runs in an L-shape along the wall provides workspace, and staggered wall cabinets hide away clutter.

Disappearing Bed Tiny Apartments 4

The stairs leading up to the kitchen offer hidden storage space for shoes, and the narrow bar overlooking the living space is hollow to hold magazines, books and other small items.

Heart of the Home Laid Open: Intimate Kitchen Portraits

10 Aug

[ By Delana in Art & Photography & Video. ]

1 kitchen portraits amsterdam

Would you ever allow a stranger to come into your home, open every cabinet and cupboard in your kitchen, and photograph whatever he finds? Artist Erik Klein Wolterink does just that, photographing the room that is often thought of as the heart of the home. He doesn’t romanticize the space, however – he wants to catch the everyday chaos that exists in most kitchens.

2 amsterdam kitchen portraits

3 portraits of kitchens

As he steps foot into each kitchen, he opens everything up – fridges, cupboards, drawers, pantries, ovens and dishwashers – and meticulously photographs everything. The camera misses nothing – not the full dishwashers or the foreign food items or the many jars of Nutella.

4 portraits inside kitchens amsterdam

5 kitchen portraits

After photographing every possible angle of the kitchens, Klein Wolterink assembles the photos into pieced-together portraits. They are patchwork quilts made up of different angles of different parts of the same kitchen. They aren’t simply straight-on pictures of rooms; they are surreal portraits, real-life tableaux in which we can see every single part of the room all at once.

6 portraits of kitchen contents

7 kitchen interior portraits

The photographs all come from kitchens in and around Amsterdam, a city rich with multicultural life. This multiculturalism is displayed in the objects residents keep in their kitchens: foreign foods, exotic ingredients, alien-looking tools. But there is something here that unites all of us, a type of universal humanism that pervades the way we buy, store, prepare, and eat our food.

8 pictures of kitchen interiors

Interestingly, Klein Wolterink doesn’t consider himself a photographer as such. He thinks of himself as a modern cartographer. Maps, he says, are not realistic representations but they make you understand reality. His photos are, in a way, maps to the human condition and our varying but connected lives.

Pat puzzling in the kitchen – Creative, Build-it Slideshow Tutorial using Paint Shop Pro by mimitalks, married w/children

Check out these visual art images:

Pat puzzling in the kitchen – Creative, Build-it Slideshow Tutorial using Paint Shop Pro by mimitalks, married w/children
visual art
Image by mimitalks, married w/children
kind of how this is achieved – slideshow made using the capabilities of Pinnacle Studio 12,
all visuals made using the capabilities of Paint Shop Pro 6 (my fav version so far, too bad they don’t make it anymore!). I would think any digital imaging program could be used to achieve this.

Check out the first comment for the settings close up and personal and still!

Like all tutorials, take what you understand and can deal with and play around with the rest.
There is never an absolute way to achieve anything here on earth. The joy is in the challenge
for moi.

Image by Dr. RawheaD
Meta-art Thomasons are usually what one might call "achitectural je m’en fous"––architectural elements that once had, but lost its meaning due to neglect or oversight. So these severed tree branches and trunks entangled in fences, wires, and other artificial structures––being primarily a natural phenomenon––don’t quite fit the definition of a Thomason. But because of their visual peculiarity in the urban landscape, are one of the favorite type of Thomasons collected 🙂

What is a Thomason?

Baking with Cameras, A Guide to Photography in the Kitchen!

14 Dec

Your camera’s just as badass as you are in the kitchen.

With your sleeves rolled up, you can both take on a little batter, and you can both definitely take on some cocoa dusted Belgian chocolate anything.

With this mid-holiday season insanity, there’s nothing that sounds better than taking a little break from it all with your camera in one hand and a spatula in the other (okay, maybe not at the same time).

Here’s a little roundup on tips for shooting in the kitchen, camera gadgets for better photos, and an extra-special section down ‘low on edible photographs and cameras. Yep, you heard us.

Photos and cameras you can eat. Go. read. now. ?

1. Tips for Taking Better Food Photos:

ingred-sm

Your two main perpetrators are 1) not having enough light and 2) having the wrong white balance.

To combat the the low light issue:

  • Shoot with a wide aperture
  • Raise ISO to capture more light
  • If your shutter speed < 1/60, use a tripod or flash.
  • Direct flash is too harsh for food (makes too many shadows & makes food glisten in potentially unappetizing ways), so you might try a flash bounce or a diffuser.

To combat the white balance issue, try these white balance settings:

  • In natural light, go with a daylight setting.
  • If it’s especially cloudy or shady with a blue cast, use a cloudy or shady setting.
  • If you have lamps on inside, set your white balance to Tungsten to offset the orange shade.
  • Or set a custom white balance using a grey card or something like a white balance lens cap.

Onward! Here are a few guides full of really handy tips for shooting in the kitchen and hey, even at the table.

  • Photojojo’s Ten Tastiest Food Photography Tips
  • The Serious Eats Guide to Food Photography
  • How to Start a Food Blog

2. Gadgets for Better Food Photos:

ingred-sm

There might be a couple reasons why you have a camera in the kitchen. Y’know, besides proving to everyone that you look really good in an apron.

It might be to document the process (maybe you have a blog!) or you’re simply a foodie that appreciates what goes into making something that looks as good as it tastes.

These gadgets are not only the extra hand you’ll need if you’re playing with flour, kneading dough, or whisking eggs, but they’ll help you get better shots, too!

  • A camera holder. Something like this Camera Capture Clip lets you wear your DSLR on your belt, keeping your camera safely out of the way.
  • Shutter triggers. The iOShutter lets you set off your DSLR’s shutter via sound, motion triggers & more. Helpful for when your hands are full.
  • A tripod. To prevent motion blur, so your photos are nice and sharp.
  • A phone stand. When you’re not using as a tripod, you can use it as a stand for reading recipes on your phone. Also check out the Tiltpod.
  • A level. Saves you time from having to go back and edit.
  • A mini camera crew. The Swivl is a phone stand that follows your every move via a remote sensor. Shoot vids of yourself or set up a video-chat.
  • A flash bounce or diffuser. Direct flash is too harsh. With the right amount of diffusion, you can take flash photos that don’t even look like they were shot with flash.
  • A grey card or white balance lens cap. Set a custom white balance to measure the temperature of the light that you’re shooting in. It’ll make your shots look more like they were shot in natural lighting.

3. Blogs & Photographers That’ll Inspire You:

ingred-sm

You’ll love these guys if you don’t already.

  • Smitten Kitchen — Simply great photos showing the process
  • Evelina and Carl Kleiner — The photographer & stylist behind Ikea’s cookbook
  • Delicious Days — Thoughtful photos of food
  • The Last Appetite — A global food blog
  • TasteSpotting — An aggregated best of from around the net
  • I Love Fika — Beautiful photos of coffee adventures in Portland and beyond

4. Camera Geek Wares for Your Kitchen:

ingred-sm

Your kitchen’s the one room in your house that’s missing that photo geekery you’re so well-known for! There’s a chance you didn’t know some of this stuff even existed.

A kitchen timer that looks like a lens and camera bag that you can use as a lunch cooler? Totes.

The f/60 Lens Kitchen Timer — A timer that looks like a lens.

Camera Cookie Cutters — For true photo geeks. Rangefinder, TLR & SLR shapes!

Ceramic Lens Mugs — For the classy coffee drinker. Ceramic with fine lens detailing.

Lens Shot Glasses — That bread pudding could do with a little shot of a brandy, and so could you.

The Egg Carton Film Case — This thing is made to keep your 35mm rolls of film fresh in the fridge. Just make sure your roomie doesn’t try to make a scramble with ‘em.

Canon & Nikon Lens Mugs — These come in telephoto and zoom, and that’s all you need to know.

The Camera Cooler Bag — This is a camera bag that can double as a cooler bag!

5. Photos & Cameras You Can Actually Eat!:

ingred-sm

Yes, finally! Here are all the delicious photos and cameras that will happily digest in your tummy.
