 I am a largely self-taught visionary photographer and digital artist working across photography, drawing, painting, digital processes, and AI-assisted image making.

My artistic practice emerged through profound personal transformation. Rooted in childhood experiences, an identity crisis, and the gradual healing of the inner child and 'pain-body' (defined by Eckhart Tolle), some of my works may reflect a journey that was less a reinvention than a return—a renaissance into consciousness, our timeless, essential nature. While the process of individuation informs my practice, the work is not simply autobiographical. Instead, it explores universal questions of perception, transformation, imagination, and the relationship between the visible and the unseen.I wouldn't claim that digital artwork changes human consciousness, heals social trauma, or redefines reality, attached to generic motion graphics or make statements throwing in complex academic or tech terms that do not actually match what is on the screen, manufacture an impression of deep meaning where there is none.

Since 2016, I have developed an intuitive, non-conformist digital practice rooted in direct engagement with nature. Beginning with deliberately blurred photographs of foliage and landscapes, I transform seemingly formless pixels into new imaginative forms and imagined worlds, This process challenges conventional ideas of photography and digital art, demonstrating how new artistic languages often emerge by breaking established rules, here photoshop tutorialism.Long before integrating AI, I spent years developing an organic, human-led generative process in Photoshop, creating images from unrefined formless photographic data without AI-gen assistance. Working with digital media since 2000, I have remained driven by curiosity about the expressive possibilities of the medium itself, developing original approaches outside institutional frameworks.

In 2023, I began integrating AI-assisted image generation into my practice. Initially, I embraced its speed, unpredictability, and surrealist potential, using platforms such as NightCafeCreator to evolve my own source material through experimentation. As the medium matured, so did my approach.My practice prioritises authorship, intentionality, and sustainability, embracing a "less is more" philosophy that values thoughtful creation over excessive generation, slowing down and pulling some breaks since 2026.

My background is in analogue photography. I trained in black-and-white darkroom printing, worked as a stills photographer on film productions, assisted fashion photographer Monika Robl, and later worked as an in-house photographer in Munich producing commercial imagery for ski wear and BMW. Following a significant personal turning point and years away from commercial photography, I returned to image-making with an independent artistic vision.My work has been exhibited and published internationally, including collaborations with Henry Boxer Gallery in London, Shrine's The Empty Gallery in New York, the Computer Arts Society in London, and publications such as *Zoom International Magazine* (Italy). Since 2006, my ongoing study of the writings or teachings of Eckhart Tolle, Jiddu Krishnamurti, and C. G. Jung has informed further my understanding of consciousness, creativity, and individuation.
