‘Utopians – Visionary People’ - a new book of portraits by photographer Felix Lammers & makeup artist Yasmin Heinz - book presentation & signing on 15 March 2024 in Berlin
Berlin-based photographer Felix Lammers and visagist Yasmin Heinz, who lives in London, are celebrating the publication of their photo book ‘Utopians – Visionary People’, a creative snapshot of our time and its longing.
Over 200 pages of striking portraits of pioneering individuals from the worlds of art, culture, and science, who share their unique utopian visions with readers. These aesthetic icons and groundbreaking innovators represent various areas including activism, architecture, fashion, film, nature, music, science, sports, and street art. Among them are acclaimed actors Clemens Schick and Albrecht Schuch, comedic genius Gayle Tufts, the cult DJs Itamar Asher and Cosmic Caz as well as the energetic Twiin Dance Company, the vibrant Ukrainian Cultural Community of Berlin, and the inspiring Paralympic Champion Florence Garrett.
The project by the creatives unfolded across two distinct locations, Berlin and London, capturing the urban atmosphere of these two melting pots and documenting the lives of their protagonists during a time of radical transitions.
Felix Lammers: “As a portrait photographer, I am always fascinated with capturing the magic moment when the nature of a person reveals itself. Throughout my international career, I’ve had the privilege of collaborating with highly talented people. Whether for campaigns with high-end clients in the fashion and beauty industry or editorials for prestigious magazines, I love working in teams. Yasmin and I, through our a long-term collaboration, have developed a deep creative synergy and created many impressive images. Our latest venture ‘Utopians’ takes this dynamic to a whole new level.”
Yasmin Heinz: “Having lived and worked as a makeup artist in New York and Paris, I am based in London. I love to be among those out there, the so-called outsider creative street artists known for breaking boundaries. It was amazing to meet all these visionary people during our new project. Transforming them into utopian artworks was the biggest challenge for me.”
