About Cenci Goepel and Jens Warnecke

A moon of light in the noon of night

“Lightmark,” the body of work by Cenci Goepel and Jens Warnecke, was created by photographing moving light sources at night. The resultant ethereal images inhabit a dramatic and often eerie landscape. Long exposures—sometimes up to an hour—are required to allow torchlight to take form and for the very low level of ambient light, usually from the moon, to illuminate the scenery.

Seen through the viewfinder, the landscape often appears as solidly black. Using a digital medium format camera for their photography, Goepel and Warnecke focus on photographic techniques rather than post processing to achieve the results they are aiming for.

The couple travels across the world to find hidden landscapes that are yet to be captured and portrayed through the Light Painting Art Form.
