entry description
In the face of the suffering, injustice and destruction on our planet, I am sometimes overcome by a sense of deep sadness at the inadequacy of the world.It is a sobering feeling to realise that the physical reality will probably never match the expectations of the mind.

about the photographer
I learned my photographic craft from the photographer Valentin Schwab. During a specialized internship with him in 1986/87, I gained profound insights into the technique and aesthetics of documentary photography. After a specialized internship in film and studio production at state television Bayerischer Rundfunk in 1988, I worked for several years as a camera assistant, both in analogue and electronic film recording. Over the years, I have increasingly abstracted my visual language. In my current work, I explore the representation of the subliminal, the ineffable and the ephemeral with abstract photographs.back to gallery
