by the desire to seek for the unknown, for those uncanny moments that suddenly ap-pear and for the dark spaces hidden inside us. I am moving around the aspects of iden-tity and analyze cross-media layers to embed the subjects. I compose photographs in order to broaden my horizon to reality, to observe the reality of my fellow men and to experiment with hyperreality. Both the investigatory and observant aspects play a decisive role and are basic in the development of my projects.

The less obvious lessons that life teaches interest me the most. I am a seeker for a hid-den world we don’t normally see and I like my photographs not only to show beauty, but also to evoke a sense of mystery. My goal is to use my camera as trigger to open an unexplored world, a place of curiosity and most importantly a world of new stories and possibilities to learn.

of the series “Raw in Everyone” 2013116 x 149cm

Portraits of fourteen individuals, each captured in a very intense, elusory condition. The hyperreality shown in a technical manner will mirrow with the hyper tense reality the persons are captured in. Observation and investigation of the unknown play a decisive role. Another part of this work is consisting of a text I wrote for 24 hours. It contains every thought that came to my mind during a whole day and a whole night and could be described as “écriture automa-tique”.

of the project “State of Flux” (Still of the female projection) 2014Video HD, 4 minutes, Loop, 200 x 150cm

This project is predicated on the wish to concentrate on the idea of “change”. What basically inter-ested me was to search for a constant that connects humans. Change can be experienced as a sudden transformation to the good or the bad. But most of the time men is surrounded by a flowing kind of change, which is only perceivable in time. “State of Flux” consists of 23 portraits which altogether build a slowly morphing sculpture of a un-precedented being. There are three projections (female, male and mixed).

You can find a compilation of the projections in this video (link).

of the series “The other Day” 2010 (ongoing)

During the past couple of years I noticed a strong interest in situations I can`t really attach. There is an uncanny moment in each of those pictures. Something that is weird and strangely familiar, proba-bly a story within the story. This series is growing in time. Sometimes it takes months, sometimes just seconds until i see this special punctum in the image.

of the project “Doppel D” 2011 (ongoing)

Doppel D is a collective consisting of Michèle Degen and Salome Dellenbach. Separated by country, city, and personality, but through photography we try to overcome distance to connect our daily lives. Everyday on a predetermined time, we capture the individual setting happening at this very moment. The combinations are uploaded and accessible through our blog (link). The duration of this project is indefinite.
