For this photographer, the streets of Hamburg are not only a path to pass, but also a place full of stories and life. His street photos often show intimate moments of human interaction with the urban environment. He is particularly interested in urban architecture and by recording the geometric details and texture of the structures, he portrays the contrast of the historical and modern aesthetics of Hamburg.

Choosing a black and white style allows Eke to focus on the essence of the subjects. By using minimalism to remove unnecessary details, he directs the viewer’s attention to hidden emotions and stories. His philosophy of “recognizing the original and removing the remnants” is seen in all his works, which makes his images simple yet profound.
