Boris Loder

Boris Loder was born in Heidenheim, Germany, on August 28, 1982. He lives in Luxembourg and works as a freelance photographer. Loder studied German and English literature as well as human and physical geography at the University of Tübingen.

His academic education has an impact on his photographic work particularly with regard to his interest in poetic forms of storytelling, image-text relation, and the interrelatedness of human behaviour and urban or natural landscapes.

Boris Loder is a regular contributor to Luxembourg’s weekly newspaper d’Lëtzebuerger Land for which he writes photography-related articles such as interviews and reviews.

With Particles, Luxembourg artist Boris Loder presents a series of images of his own sculptures, created in order to be photographed. The cubes composed of found objects creatively retrace the identity of different districts of Luxembourg City. Here, the urban real meets the social and relational in a unique strain of assemblage. Like small urban still lifes, these photographs deconstruct the narrative of the everyday.
