about
Photo: Christine Fenzl
My work is a contemplation on the world of constant change, with a special interest in the realm of stillness.
Self-taught, I photographed for magazines (Stern /Geo /Art /manager magazin) and companies for over three decades. In the mid-90s, interest in personal projects grew, which found expression in the first series LA DRIVE-BY /Desert in the City (1996 – 2001). WALD /forest (2009 – 2012) opened the view to the silence in the landscape. As in FLUSS /river (2012 – 2015) – images of the Rhine – this a mixture of stillness and movement, like order in chaos. COLD MOUNTAIN /Kalter Berg (2013 – 2019), images from the French Alps, followed the longing for solitude and silence.
