About me

Searching for ways to express a phenomenon, conflict or dilemma in
visual metaphor, I explore different forms and technologies of Media art.
I am particularly interested in interdisciplinary and research-based projects
in which I can delve into different scientific and sociological topics
from an archaeological approach. During my university years I examined
for example the emergence of heliocentrism, the changing societal
roles of women during the great witch-hunts, the competition of workers
in socialist garment factories, the cultural impact of Radio Free Europe
in the Cold War era and the history of meteorology.
