ALLERGATTIG LÜTT - ALL KIND OF PEOPLE

This project work was inspired by photographic pioneer August Sander. I still remember the first time I've discovered his portrait work : his touching way to draw the portraits of men and women of his time. As I started my "ALLERGATTIG LÜTT" series (people of all kind) I tried to document everyday people in my neighborhood in a simple way, with no artificial lighting and in square format, always in their real environment. They're all part of a German speaking minority in french speaking Canton of Fribourg in Switzerland. Part of this series has previously been pubslihed in bookworm and shown in museum and gallery exhibitions.
