I try to view things as if I were seeing them for the first time, to discover previously unnoticed aspects of them. This takes some time, dedication and openness to what is new. It is, in essence, about forgetting, casting aside habitual ways of seeing. This approach is not always successful. Sometimes it is easier to fall back on what we already know than to cast it aside in order to learn something new.

Studied at ZeLIG, School for Documentary Film, Television and New Media in Bolzano, camera assistant for various documentary films for ORF, ZDF, SRF and RAI. I completed a 5-semester course in artistic and representative photography at the Austrian "Prager Fotoschule", with distinction. Lives as a freelance photographer in St. Lorenzen, South Tyrol, Italy.
