Untitled 2019-IV from 'White Crow', 2021

From the series White Crow Hans Bol is deeply fascinated by the passing and recording of time. In his work, it is birds that embody this; on their way to their unknown destinations, they fly upwards mirroring life’s fleeting passing. Bol is recognised for his depiction of birds as messengers of eternity. The crow, one of Bol's favorite species, is also a metaphor for something rather universal. Not only death, an interpretation that dates back to pagan times, but also an omen of happiness according to some cultures and mythologies. In his most recent series, Bol uses platinum-palladium printing, an old one-of-a-kind process that results in warm-toned and slightly velvety prints. Platinum-palladium prints are known for long-lasting durability and color fastness and thus reflect the photographer's aim to capture the eternal and timeless.
