Matting

Framing is an art form and not only because it requires some skills to frame a photography in order to look good without dust or lint on the picture, extensive knowledge about material and the process is required to do it 100% correctly. Conservatory framing requires material of archival quality. But all this is only true if you plan to present the artwork in the frame for a long time period. Exhibitions often dońt require this amount of effort and investment. Nevertheless I want my photographs to be presented in the best possible manner, therefore some care was required to do the matting and framing correctly.

The Concept for The Between The Light Exhibition in Freiburg

I was super thrilled and excited when I learned that I will have the opportunity to exhibit my work in Freiburg in the the Bahnhofsturm. This excitement lasted for almost and hour until I realized how many challenges this will bring along. Of course we all want to go out and show the world how good we are, what fine images we take, but then again, do we really make photographs that matter? Who wants to see them? With the excitement the doubts came simultaneously.

Flickr is not dead

May 28, 2017

Why I am returning to my terribly neglected Flickr stream and not setting up an Instagram account

How often do you hear critical voices when it comes to Flickr. The dinosaur of photo sharing has become less important over the ascent of Instagram, Snapchat and co. What once was the only and probably best photo sharing site has gone through a tough renewal and rejuvenation and might now be able to attract old friends again. This is my story why I am returning to Flickr.

Tiger Striped Skies

November 25, 2016

Tiger Striped Skies

My new series showing the cultural and social contrasts in a contemporary Asian city. Modern architecture is dominating the cityscape, but between the fascinating buildings, we find traces of human life. The cold and clean architectural masterpieces surround various social communities and all the people who are living here, sharing the place and adapting to the new challenges.
