In her photography Höfer turns towards architectural situations, which presumably influence, and are influenced by the public. The artist's preferred subject is interiors, but she avoids purely private rooms. The viewer becomes aware of the public character and the functionality of waiting rooms, libraries and museums, even though, or perhaps because there are no people (with few exceptions).
