Lilienstraße

The Lilienstraße (a generic name for a street in Germany) project aims to capture unbiased societal positions and opinions in Germany, focusing on non-political individuals in Brandenburg. Through brief, dialogical formulations, it highlights underrepresented voices. Inspired by August Sander's photography and The Family of Man (Edward Steichen), the project explores the visual and textual formation of a homo politicus.

versos

The project versos features politicians hanging their own campaign posters. By interlinking the politicians, their performative actions, and the election posters in its primary form, the project aims to reflect on how a political image is created, revealing the natural persons behind the politicians and their societal positions during the 2024 elections for the 8th Brandenburg State Parliament.

Attachment Toys

Stuffed animals and blankets comfort children and neurodivergent individuals. Forest kindergarten children often attach to natural objects like sticks and chestnut seeds, promoting recycling and environmental care. Our project highlights these "nature toys" and contrasts them with single-function, fast-consumption toys, emphasizing sustainable exploration and creativity.

sottobosco

sottobosco project explores creating comfortable, safe images of wild nature and abandoned spaces. It transforms these into controlled sites, emphasizing absence and ambiguity. The project employs a multifocal approach to reality reproduction, challenging conventional perspectives and inviting viewers to reconsider their relationship with overlooked environments.


Gastarbeiter

In Germany, where the cost of services like “Husband for an Hour” from official companies is quite high, people often seek more affordable alternatives by posting requests on social networks or classifieds such as Kleinanzeigen. These requested and offered services range from painting a room to creating birthday souvenirs or installing pirated software. By photographing tasks (to be) undertaken in private homes, a collection that captures outsourced cultural practices, aesthetic expectations, creative expressions, and private interiors is being created.


Comforting Zones

Big pinboards, or noticeboards, remain in European offices despite digital shifts. Initially for notices, they now act often as acoustic insulators and personal spaces. As AI replaces administrative roles, pinboards symbolize human presence and individuality, reflecting the need for personal connection in modern workplaces.
