My Work
“Un(der)cover” is an ongoing project where I take pictures of situations that unfold in front of my eyes while I am observing my surrounding in an almost spy like fashion. The images are instant recreations, filtered through my imagination, of spontaneous chance encounters that took place at a particular location just moments before. The trigger to my reaction might be a strange setting, an unusual movement or a partly hidden subject just before we make eye contact.
The square format, the clean and minimal environment and the subtraction of any colour puts the focus on the momentary, often slightly playful or unexpected story rather than the actual subject itself. One could think of the images as movie stills, freeze frames of my reflections on something that just happened, something perhaps even barely noticeable at first-- as those reflections play out on the screen of my imagination. To me those images are a way to uncover the absurdity of my own life, how I selectively see my surrounding, the people I encounter and myself in the midst of it all.
My work has been printed in numerous publications and exhibited in various places such as Zurich, Rome, Stockholm and New York. A selected number of prints are available for purchase and/or as NFTs on Foundation. Do get in touch with me for any enquiries. I am currently based in Paris, France.
