Body Language

  • Photographer
    Bella Von Einsiedel

Whether shadow play with the hands, pantomime or the sign language. There are different ways to represent animals. How similar are humans and animals? A still growing series about the connection between animals and humans, created with body control and a touch of surrealism through photo editing. In this series you can find a frog, a deer, a penguin, a butterfly and a hedgehog. For the butterfly I used the symbol for the butterfly in the sign language. For the other animals, I searched for distinctive recognition features, wondering how they can be represented.

In 2009 Bella discovered her passion for portrait photography and created her own photographic signature during the coming years.Her works show surreal worlds,some of them are fantastically and some a kind of bizarre.Her works have received several international awards,including several gold,silver&bronze medals.Live interviews,publications and exhibitions of individual works followed.Since 2016 Bella is volunteering in the German foundation "Dein Sternenkind" and gives parents photos of their deceased children.On the international photography site 1x.com she is working as a curator since 2018
