Rolf Sachs | Camera in Motion: From Chur to Tirano | By Lee Fleming 

My first thought when I saw these photographs taken by Swiss-born conceptual artist and designer Rolf Sachs was "not all transport journeys have to be uninspiring". An exceptional case that blurs the boundaries between abstract art and landscape photography, Rolf Sachs' 'Camera in Motion - From Chur to Tirano', supported by Leica Camera, explores the landscape along the World Heritage Rhaetian Albula/Bernina Railway line.

Photographed over the course of an year, Rolf Sachs' journey along the century-old railway line that runs between Chur (Switzerland) and ends in Tirano (Italy) saw him capture the dramatic alpine scenery from the window of the moving train. The result was an extensive and breathtaking collection of photographs.
