Born in Germany, I am a visionary digital and photo artist with roots in analogue photography, self-taught with a diploma, and diverse experience in advertising, black & white darkroom work, film set work, and book cover art, including outdoor model scouting.A profound kundalini awakening at age 30 catalyzed my spiritual transformation, healing childhood wounds and awakening my consciousness and spiritual eye, which I now see as an extension of my camera lens, allowing me to explore formless consciousness beyond the physical realm.
Since 2000, I have been evolving my digital art practice through photo editing. I could see with the 'eye of my mind' a 💡 moment how to begin and transformed formless photo pixel content into new imaginary forms.Through non-conformist photo-editing I create digital art.In 2023, I incorporated AI-generated surrealist text automatism into my work to explore various themes favoring a non-analytical, intuitive approach.
My early works have been exhibited at the Henry Boxer Gallery in London, Brighton & Hove Art Museum, and with the Computer Arts Society London, and published in Zoom International Magazine Italy, where my digital art was described as a phoenix rising from the ashes.I have been an Award Winner with Wise.art in Geneva in 2024 and 2025.
