When they met in Hannover in 2022, smoking together bonded them. \u2018We realised we both enjoy smoking, and then talked about doing an ironically glorifying project about it,\u2019 says Carlotta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n        <figure class=\"post-image--cover has-spacing--m\">\n\n            <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/visualjournalism.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/Max_Schlag_Kippenkult__Krebsromantik_Carlotta_Steinkamp_Fabian_Niebauer-1-scaled.jpg\"  alt=\"\" \/>\n            \n            \n        <\/figure><!-- post-image--cover -->\n\n    \n\n\n\n<div class=\"devider has-spacing--none\">\n    <hr>\n<\/div>\n\n\r\n \r\n    \r\n    <div id=\"quote-block_8bb8d727f987ffce45db3b8603995215\" class=\"block-quote has-spacing--m\">\r\n        <figure class=\"quote\">\r\n            <blockquote>\r\n                <p><strong>There&#8217;s a need for<\/strong> something light, what with the serious state of the world.<\/p>\n            <\/blockquote>\r\n\r\n            <figcaption>\r\n\r\n                            <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"portrait--inline\" src=\"https:\/\/visualjournalism.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/Carlotta_Steinkamp_SW-1-52x52.jpg\" width=\"52\" height=\"52\" alt=\"\" \/>\r\n                            <span>Carlotta Steinkamp<\/span>\r\n            <\/figcaption>\r\n            \r\n        <\/figure>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n\r\n\n\n\n<p class=\"post__paragraph has-spacing--m wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>What began as a whim, the two pursued with determination.<\/strong> They not only photographed fellow smokers but also went to tobacco fairs in search of the absurd situations that best capture the madness of this addiction. Before long they began to see their project as a book: early dummies and prototypes met with an enormous response at festivals and among friends. It quickly became clear that interest was far greater than expected \u2013 and, curiously, many non-smokers were drawn to the pictures too.<br><br>In the end they collected pre-orders to fund the printing with the publisher <a href=\"https:\/\/www.verlag-kettler.de\/de\/buecher\/pleasure-to-burn\/\">Kettler<\/a>. And so the first published book by the pair, who usually focus on serious social issues, turned out to be a visual ode to smoking, of all things.<br><br>\u2018There&#8217;s a certain irony to it, of course, as we both normally do serious work,\u2019 Carlotta admits. She sees the fact that the project has gone down so well as a sign of the times: \u2018It&#8217;s lovely to be appreciated like this, because there&#8217;s a need for something light, what with the serious state of the world.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n    <figure class=\"block-photo post__image--full has-spacing--m no-title\">\n\n        <div class=\"post__image__container\">\n            <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" \n                src=\"https:\/\/visualjournalism.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/Max_Schlag_Kippenkult__Krebsromantik_Carlotta_Steinkamp_Fabian_Niebauer_3.png\"\n                srcset=\"https:\/\/visualjournalism.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/Max_Schlag_Kippenkult__Krebsromantik_Carlotta_Steinkamp_Fabian_Niebauer_3.png 954w, https:\/\/visualjournalism.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/Max_Schlag_Kippenkult__Krebsromantik_Carlotta_Steinkamp_Fabian_Niebauer_3-300x299.png 300w, https:\/\/visualjournalism.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/Max_Schlag_Kippenkult__Krebsromantik_Carlotta_Steinkamp_Fabian_Niebauer_3-150x149.png 150w, https:\/\/visualjournalism.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/Max_Schlag_Kippenkult__Krebsromantik_Carlotta_Steinkamp_Fabian_Niebauer_3-768x765.png 768w, https:\/\/visualjournalism.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/Max_Schlag_Kippenkult__Krebsromantik_Carlotta_Steinkamp_Fabian_Niebauer_3-670x667.png 670w, https:\/\/visualjournalism.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/Max_Schlag_Kippenkult__Krebsromantik_Carlotta_Steinkamp_Fabian_Niebauer_3-420x418.png 420w, https:\/\/visualjournalism.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/Max_Schlag_Kippenkult__Krebsromantik_Carlotta_Steinkamp_Fabian_Niebauer_3-350x349.png 350w, https:\/\/visualjournalism.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/Max_Schlag_Kippenkult__Krebsromantik_Carlotta_Steinkamp_Fabian_Niebauer_3-52x52.png 52w, https:\/\/visualjournalism.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/Max_Schlag_Kippenkult__Krebsromantik_Carlotta_Steinkamp_Fabian_Niebauer_3-68x68.png 68w, https:\/\/visualjournalism.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/Max_Schlag_Kippenkult__Krebsromantik_Carlotta_Steinkamp_Fabian_Niebauer_3-96x96.png 96w\"\n                width=\"954\" \n                height=\"950\"\n                alt=\"Ashtray collage; smoking, addiction\" \n            \/>\n            \n                    <\/div><!-- post__image__container -->\n\n        \n    <\/figure><!-- post__image -->\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"post__paragraph has-spacing--m wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Although the title \u2018Pleasure to Burn\u2019 <\/strong>suggests unclouded euphoria, a look behind the smokescreen reveals another layer.
