"Der Schweinfurter" is a portrait that delves into the complex nature of spirituality through the lens of a single individual. The subject's sense of spirituality is deeply intertwined with his sense of aloneness, which he sees as a source of liberation from even the concept of God. This unique perspective is conveyed through the portrait, which also includes the subject's biological information in the form of his retina and fingerprints. These marks, which are often used for security and surveillance purposes, serve to frame the subject and highlight the ways in which technology and society impact our understanding of spirituality and personal identity.
