If I may introduce myself,
I was born 1987 in Carinthia, Austria. In 2012 I took all my stuff and moved out to Graz, where I currently live and work. Photography was unknowingly there all the time till I discovered my first Dslr in 2009. I've studied at the academy of applied photography where I found the passion for analoge photography.
My Photographs work as mundane tableaux infusing everyday sceneries with a deep immanent sense of harmony and homage for all things as if materializing the universal fact of existence.
In 2015, together with Maria Lichtenegger, I founded the Graz based magazine rûm to promote analogue photography.
rûm
Magazine for analoge photography
Since 2024, I have been a member of kollektiv:raum, a studio collective dedicated to the research of photographic images and visual media. Our work focuses on the presentation of emerging photographers, facilitating artist talks, and providing high-quality fine art printing services for artists to support and promote contemporary photographic art.
