FROM DEEP INSIDE
Series of 7 Photos - Limited Edition
After giving up my structured life and letting go the heavy weight of expectations, perfection and fears I entered an unpredictable world.
This new way of living appeared inscrutable and mysterious at the beginning (“Mystical”). When peeling off my mind-focused way of thinking an unknown path appeared (“Open”). Being overwhelmed by my intense feelings I oscillated between extremes including sexual desire, shame, losing my self-control and adapting to social rules (“Look”). I was magically attracted and terrified at the same time to enter my own darkness (“Who dares to enter?”). There was only one way: to take the risk, to step down and face my fears. Constraints got blurry and shifted. My inner contradictions cleared up. Life was gaining depth (“From Deep Inside”). Slowly I became comfortable in accepting my inner truth and found protection within myself. Going through this transformation sparked my inner light again (“Cosy”). Feeling released, I integrated my experiences in my now more liberated and joyful way of living, letting my light shine from within (“Luscious”).
Changing environment from my structured life in Switzerland to the vibrant centre of Barcelona facilitated to take first ambiguous photos. This included broad studies about different skin parts and intense emotions. Next, I travelled to Iran where I develop my series further. There I was feeling well understood in my diverse emotions. In Iran society is forced to life between extremes - their well-controlled public life and their proportionally free private life. My own discrepancies were intensified there, and this was an important experience to inwardly break-free. Back in Switzerland my diverse impressions matured, and this series took the definite shape.
My work will be featured at "photo Schweiz" in Zurich-Oerlikon at StageOne & Halle 622.

LE PARADIS D`APHRODITE
Series of 8 Photos - Limited Edition
Breaking-free from a logical-analytical way of thinking which I was accustomed to as a chemist, is the starting point of my art works. Diving into deep emotions and trusting my intuitive creative process has result in this series of sensual and ambiguous photos. Each photo contains a part of my transformative phase. Learning to fully love and accept myself including my erotic, intense, and vulnerable personality was most important. Paradise can only be found within us. The series “Le paradis d`Aphrodite” is provocative and subtle at the same time. The observer is invited to imagine his/her own captivating tale.
Developing the concept of applying pigment on skin in combination with photography included a broad material study during my residency in Barcelona. Later, travelling to the land of contradictions - Iran - has inspired the way of expressing my sensual side regarding my own discrepancies. The tension between social expectations and celebrating femininity is condensed in the current series. Back in Switzerland I defined the light concept and picture details before producing the photos.
