Artistic diary in Kabyle
This artistic diary accompanies my current research work. It is meant to open a window for Northern Algeria, especially for the people of the Kabylei.
The diary grows with each day and has an open end. The extent to which Algeria meets my life in Munich is to become experimentally apparent here.

Correlation
The collage shows a landscape inspired by the unknown 17th century painter and cartographer Valentin Gappnigg from Austria. The photographs used for the collage are from the book by Windsor Chorlton „Inside the Body“. The question is raised whether an aesthetic approach to the abstract concept of the Anthropocene can be made by interweaving the outside with the inside.
Fishing
The photographs capture the hours before sunrise at Lake Kochel near Munich. They were taken in the boat of a professional fisherman.The opposites of life and death, the elements of air and water are recorded and united on the fishing boat.Through the change in water temperatures, fishermen are direct witnesses of climate change.
Triptych Anthropocene
The intervention and use of nature is possible even at heights where agriculture no longer plays a role. Hydropower is an important source of energy in Austria and is endangered by climate change. The photographs show an aesthetic approach
to how human intervention in nature creates new forms and dependencies.
The view of the Pasterze on the Grossglockner massif is also a farewell. The knowledge of glacier melt on the environment is known, but the exact effects are still uncertain. The glacier and its beauty are evident, the disappearance of it inevitable. The photographs want to express an emotional point of view more than a documentation.
Please smile!
The video in continuous loop questions the self-dramatisation in social media
and the desire for happiness and participation through suggested good
humour. The photographed self-portraits are shown in an old computer, at the
artist’s head height. Can technology suggest real feelings of a person or is
there a misunderstanding between appearance and reality?
