My main focus lies in nature and architectural photography. I deliberately seek proximity to buildings and their surrounding social environments, as they always represent for me an individual perspective on both our natural and urban realities. Church photography, therefore, is far more than a series of monotonous or static images. It is an exploration of space and time, as well as of the “nature of objects” and their urban contexts. At its core, my work examines the boundaries and transitions between the artificial and the natural — the separation and connection between nature and humanity. What interests me most is the tension within the architecture itself: these are spaces created by humans to mystify, contemplate, and venerate their own act of creation. Furthermore, the photographs are meant to provoke reflection. Through intentional abstraction, they raise questions about what images of churches can tell us, and how they might be understood in relation to modernity. With these works, I aim to challenge the notion of reality and illuminate associated themes such as space and time, glass and light, architecture and creation.
