Werner Amanns neues Buch „This Feels Safe“ ist eine hypnotische Reise durch den Ozean und die Wüsten Kaliforniens und Mexikos: brechende Wellen, psychedelisch-bunte Kakteen, Gesichter von Freunden, die sich dicht an den Sand schmiegen, zerklüftete Felsformationen, während ein Militärhubschrauber tief über ihnen schwebt. Geteilte Intimität im Gebet und bei Strandpartys mit bunten Plastikflaschen. Ist das grüne Meerwasser giftig oder lebenspendend? Die Fotografien entstanden über einen Zeitraum von drei Jahren und changieren zwischen Porträt, Dokumentation und Essay, ergänzt durch vier Texte des Künstlers. Werner Amann untersucht Begegnung und Interaktion als primäre Form der Welterfahrung, in der sich Elementares, Technologisches, Synthetisches und Sinnliches überschneiden. Feuer, Erde, Ozean und Luft pulsieren durch die Bilder, ebenso wie wiederkehrende Momente des Rituals und der Berührung. „This Feels Safe“ porträtiert eine verletzliche und zutiefst lebendige Welt und verweist zugleich auf mögliche Zukünfte.
