Dear visitor,
having studied with
Prof. Joachim Sauter
in his
New Media Class
at the University of the Arts Berlin, I am interested in our engagement with physical objects.
How can objects reveal secrets, be alive, be a window?
After a few years of work, these questions seem to be underlying in many of the installations and objects, that I have created so far. For example in the
bone conduction installation
that was installed for two years on the Brühlsche Terrasse Dresden: At a first glance you cannot see anything, but if you come closer, you discover the vibration and the icons. And if
you follow the instructions, then you are send back into the year 1945 during the time of WWII.
My personal favorite work is
Roermond-Ecke-Schönhauser. A webcam installation, in which small miniatures are digitally connected to real world locations and therefore display
the boring and peacefull everyday life that happens somewhere else. I like the work, because after observing those miniatures during multiple setups for exhibitions, I got more and more
familiar with them. Eg. with the rubbish car, that passes by every wednesday.
So far I have been invited to media art festivals, exhibited in various museums worldwide and given talks at art and design conferences eg. at Ars Electronica, Japan Media Arts Festival,
V2_, ZKM, Transmediale, Design Shanghai and Boston Museum of Science.
I like to live and work in Berlin.
