Eastern & Oriental Express by Stefanie Moshammer

RVB Books

A collection of works by Austrian artist Stephanie Moschammer.

Renowned for restoring historic buildings, the Belmond Luxury Hotel Group is now collaborating with some of the world's leading contemporary photographers to create destination-specific portfolios, carefully pairing each artist with the personality of the selected hotel. Stephanie Moshammer was selected to photograph the 2023 Eastern & Oriental Express, capturing the beauty of this unique train as it weaves through the breathtaking Malaysian landscape.

Moshammer's work explores stereotypes and cultural myths, offering nuanced, personal perspectives on a variety of places and subjects. Combining fiction and subjective narrative with a research-driven approach, her projects illuminate themes of social dynamics and human relationships, each time reflecting a fresh, personal approach that is original, unexpected, and original. Fascinated by the unknown and unfamiliar, she became fascinated with the Eastern & Oriental Express, which travels from Singapore through the lush jungles and historic towns of Malaysia. With its opulent interiors and the charm of a bygone era, this iconic train offers its guests a sense of adventure and re-creation of luxury. Moshammer's images accentuate these details while at the same time transcending them. She combines various visual elements, including stills from her short films shot on her iPhone, and screenshots of found images that she crops, blurs, and pixelates to create a dreamlike quality and a sense of timelessness.
