Robert Rieger, Photographer, Berlin

Description

An elderly East Asian woman with silver hair stands behind a wooden counter, carefully holding a slice of perforated lotus root with metal tweezers. She is dressed in a dark top and wears distinctive geometric earrings, focusing intently on her work. In front of her sit four glass jars containing various pickled vegetables and preserved ingredients, complete with small handwritten paper labels tied with string. The background reveals warm, rustic interior shelving lined with ceramic vessels and earthenware pots under soft ambient lighting. This portrait by Berlin-based photographer Robert Rieger captures a quiet, deliberate moment of culinary preparation.
