Statement

A main theme of my artistic work is the perception of space and pictorial space. I deal with questions from abstract and concrete-constructive art. With my work, I also investigate how these can be realized with the medium of photography. With the camera, I can capture my view, let it become a picture, and make it visible for others. The striving for abstraction and a clear, concise visual language has led me to cut the photographic image irregularly. For me, this corresponds to an adaptation to human vision: our visual process focuses and at the same time fades out the less important. I explore the possibilities at the limits of the medium and release photography from the convention of the rectangular panel painting. In this way, I open up new fields of perception. I am interested in the moments in which the clarity and thus the certainty tips over when the viewer's consciousness starts to sway over what is above, below, in front or behind and when the legibility of the motif changes. The initial irritation challenges the viewer to pause and consciously observe.
