\n\"Berlin
\n 
\nEvery summer, young people from around the world\u00a0flock\u00a0to Berlin in hopes of living out their techno-fuelled dreams.\u00a0The German capital, with its\u00a0unwavering\u00a0reputation as the go-to destination for club kids, has created\u00a0a generation of people bewildered by the energy,\u00a0allure and hedonism in\u00a0the metropolis. For those unable to experience the uniqueness of a Berlin summer first-hand, one photographer\u00a0is honestly\u00a0documenting what it’s like to be young in the city.
\nThough she spends most days working 9-5, during her free time Carolin Hirt is quite the photographer. Forgoing the\u00a0digital world, she prefers to shoot her friends entirely in analogue. Doing this, Hirt succeeds in avoiding social media and its\u00a0unrealistic portrayals of youth and beauty. This is vital for the young Berliner as she\u00a0strives to maintain authenticity in every image.

\nThis Friday, Hirt will host her first Berlin Ausstellung<\/a> at BAM on Ritterstrasse 9. Entitled “The unbearable perfection of life”, the show will feature all of the emotion characteristic of her work.
\nThe photographs\u00a0\u2013\u00a0taken over the course of 12 months \u2013 serve as a visual diary, allowing spectators to gain an intimate look at\u00a0Hirt’s close circle of friends amidst a life of\u00a0lakeside vacations and, of course, Berghain<\/a>.\u00a0More importantly however, the images\u00a0also offer a sincere glimpse at Berlin’s youth, without the filters and double-tapping. When asked about the motivations behind her work, Hirt says: “With my pictures, I hope to convey honest feelings and emotions. A lot of my work is very personal and I would never capture a contrived moment.”
