Of course, that would be more of a drowning in the shallow, in the visually foamy, which replaces depth with uniform and digitally sugar-coated aesthetics. Michael Nguyen’s pictures are different: With his photographs, he manages to give the eyes a reason to linger, “by creating clarity in vision and a challenge in interpretation through reduction and emphasis,” as Rainer Funke,...

Artistic photography today moves quite differently than it did just a few decades ago as a visual force and communicative intervention in the midst of an overflowing glut of images whose production, management, and dissemination have long since gotten out of hand with conscientious control. After film, television, and computers, the smartphone in particular has catapulted us into a new image age. Often the challenge is to give the eyes an occasion to linger between their unsteady jumps from image to image. Michael Nguyen succeeds excellently in creating such an occasion with his photographs...

Michael Nguyen is a street and documentary photographer living near Munich, Germany. He is also the co-founder of Tagree Magazine. We asked him a few questions about his life and work: All About Photo: What is your background? I do not have any formal educational background in photography. Medical nursing was my vocation. While working in the intensive care unit and the emergency room, I was confronted with great suffering and death. This certainly had an impact on my photographic work. Many of my photos, as one can see, are melancholic and sometimes a little bit dark. All About...

Light and reflections are interdependent and essential to Nguyen's photographs. He succeeds in capturing magical and unique moods. Reflective surfaces, cool materials, clear, reduced forms encourage reflection and exploration. Looking into a reflection opens up new and different perspectives. The viewer is invited to look very closely. There is much to discover. We can only see ourselves through reflections. In the mirror, on water, and on every shiny surface. The truth is, our reflections are coming from anything that reflects light, which is everything not completely dark. So we see...
