I have been intensely involved in photography for a few years. I attended several courses on various photographic topics: Schule für Gestaltung Bern (CH), Europäische Kunstakademie Trier (D), Leica Akademie Wetzlar (D), Akademie für zeitgenössische Kunst Gaienhofen (D).
My photography does not represent the world as it is, but should open up possibilities of what could be. When we look at a blurred photograph, our own imagination can fill the gaps that the image withholds. The bottom line is what's going on in our head. In this way, emotions and moments can motivate us to pause and let our own stories be experienced.
On the way with the camera, I constantly encounter motifs - at first glance often very everyday moments - the charm of which can sometimes only be seen through the processing.
My photo technique is simple. During a long exposure time, I deliberately perform camera movements (ICM = Intentional Camera Movement). The photos are then processed in Lightroom and Photoshop. I am happy to use textures that open up completely new artistic possibilities, somewhere between photography and painting.
