Biography

Based in Vevey (CH), I am a swiss-german photographer born in Lausanne. I am graduated since 2003 from the advanced training in Photography, school of Applied Arts in Vevey, under the direction of Radu Stern. In my work, through portraiture, I explore mainly the boundaries and connections between reality and perception, in interaction with the viewer, the photographer and the subject. My near portfolio is a body of work gathering images of different series since 2002 until now. Including chimères, Vraisemblance, Vertigo(s) and Synchronie as well as singles images.
