Photo exhibition: "ÉIERLECH."

On Wednesday, 29 January 2025, the photo exhibition "ÉIERLECH." by Luxembourg photographer Tom Jungbluth was officially opened in Merl Park. The exhibit revolves around the notion of honesty, something that is intrinsic to the artist's approach to photography.

What does it mean to be honest? When are we truly honest? How do you make honesty visible? In his work, Tom Jungbluth affirms how honesty and authenticity give a snapshot that sense of emotional depth. These qualities allow the artist to capture a moment that is real, stopping the viewer and immersing them in the moment surrounding the image.

Through a series of 16 intimate portraits shot with a Mamiya RB67 - an iconic medium-format camera, known for its versatility and exceptional image quality - Tom Jungbluth invites the public to reflect on the importance of honesty and trust, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in these images and seek the story behind each face. For the artist, it is only in moments of great trust that we reveal the hidden sides of ourselves. The images have undergone only minimal editing in order to preserve the raw immediacy of the moment. For Tom Jungbluth, the strength of photography as an art form lies in its ability to leave room for interpretation, inviting the public to reflect on the beauty, complexity and depth of human relationships.
