Originally trained as an architect, I locate my work at the interface between art and architecture by creating documentary photographic images of places, spaces and buildings. I tackle topics between urban space, the development of my home town Berlin and the process of building in general. In doing so, I aim to draw attention to how we create our built environment and how it in turn affects us.

A key feature of my work is that I do not dramatize, neither negatively nor positively, I just document. Thus not so much concerned with beauty, I am rather in the habit of analytically yet humorously taking a closer look at the complex world of building. In the process, the detail is always just as important as the whole.
