Artist Statement
Photography is a way for me to embrace myself, to feel at home. I use my camera to connect with the world around me and simultaneously with myself. Ungraspable, not always visible phenomena and processes of nature fascinate me. For example; the forming of mountains, the continuous cycle of clouds and the growing process of a tree.
With my camera I build a bridge between my inner- and outer landscape. I want to research the cycles and processes we go through as humans and the relationship between our inner experience and our outside environment. How can we learn about ourselves by observing the world around us?
