About

CV

         In my work I mix the media of photography and writing with assemblage of found and made objects to create situational tableaus. The public space has been both, an action field and a metaphor for conflicting experiences and desires to me. Further interests are: the margins, the periphery, hushed phenomena of the mundane life, slipping through the grids of categorization, and fashioning identity. My most recent research has been concerned with smell and resulted in a row of works dealing with the eroticism, ambitions and projections associated with perfume. My works have been shown in Germany, Austria, Scotland and Belgium.

Although identity politics aren’t subject to my practice, I believe that they shape the conditions of art making significantly. That is why I would like to make transparent the following of my identities: I am White, non-binary, neurodivergent, and middle class.
