In my artistic work, I am concerned with questioning constant places and states. With digital photo collages, I combine natural and artificial landscapes or separate fragments from their familiar surroundings. The results are images, objects and installations that make places with protheses or gaps more visible and give them a new identity with ambiguity.

The fragmentation of an old GDR factory window is devided into four wall works and one room installation.
The work is a visual examination of growing up in a small town in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern before, during and after the fall of the Berlin Wall in the so called Baseballschlägerjahre. The entire work moves through a period of 40 years. The wall works consist of fragmented photos of shards. The room installation shows into the hole of fragmentation:

In the serial work unplan tarpaulins – artificial unplanned landscapes – meet natural landscapes. Parts connect to similar structures and create a new location with an implanted prothesis. To each of the works there is an inverted counterpart and the play with transformative intermediate states. There is a wandering between two places.

digital photomontages, 2023
The installation unplanmembran is a cooperation with the sound and light artist Leo Neumann. There are two transparent fabrics hung one behind the other with two photomontages from my series unplan that are contrasting inside and outside and a light and sound programming by Leo. By playing with the perception of light, the places are transformed into new intermediate states, visible on both sides. Through the choreography of artificial and natural sound sources, synchronized with the lights, an immersive work is created, whereby the viewer can find herself or himself in a "location glitch" for a very short time during the unexpected changes of location.

In the interactive installation unplan-pfütze a puddle in a dark room is illuminated by a projector with the film unplan-pfz-trns. The puddle reflects the film onto the wall, where not only the film can be seen, but also the shape of the puddle, the bubbles of the puddle water and the periodic interruption of the surface tension of the water by a steady drop dripping into the puddle.
