About
The photobook 'The Promise' is a view inside the development of one of the most promising technologies, fusion energy.
Since mankind knows about the energy inside the atom and build their first fission reactors scientist from all around the world also try to tame the process that produces the suns energy.
The technology sounds too good to be true. It‘s supposed to be cleaner than the burning of fossile fuels, less limited than renewable energy and safer than nuclear energy.
The project is shortlisted for the Kolga Tbilsi Photo Award 2023.

About the Author
Jan didn‘t start to become interested in photography until in the last year of school with a graduation focus on science. His fascination for fundamental physics led him to photograph at a few research institutes. For him, understanding the functionality of what he's taking pictures of is as important as photographing it and led him to love telling others about the science behind the image.
Apart from that he‘s heavily inspired by science fiction movies like Arrival, Blade Runner 2049 and Dune. He therefore likes to create stories which capture the atmosphere of a place and does so by mixing portraits with stills and architecture.
Meanwhile Jan is working as a freelancer.
