DESCRIPTION
The project always started in Austria, with an unsupported bicycle journey, carrying ~55kg of gear. Over 2 years 4 photographs were taken, cycling over months in each cardinal direction, capturing lesser-known landscapes with a personal touch. The images are shot in b&w, using a Linhof 617sIII large-format analog camera. Each photograph is unique, finally darkroom printed on FineArt Baryta paper in a size of 3x1m, fully hand-crafted in a Berlin lab. The project emphasizes slow photography, with a focus on quality over quantity, resulting in one-of-a-kind pieces in an exclusive edition of 1
AUTHOR
I was born in 1974 in Klagenfurt, Austria.
My educational journey began as a mechanic, followed by studies at the HTL in Mechanical Engineering in Salzburg. Later, I pursued a degree in Information & Business Management .
With over 20 years of professional experience, I have worked in various companies across departments such as Marketing, Product Management, Process Management and Education/Training development.
Throughout my career, I have always been passionate about travelling and photography. Photography already in a semi-professional way over the last years.
In early 2023 I took a significant step in my life: I left the corporate world to fully immerse and concentrated myself on intensive and unique artistic photography projects as a professional photographer.
I am focusing on slowing down the process of photography with long and unsupported projects where only a few photos are taken. That’s why each of my photos has a unique story of creation.
