Biography
|
In 1993, after many years in music, I turned to photography. Impressed by the expressiveness of high-quality fine art prints, I devoted my initial years to the fundamentals of photography and my interest for positive and negative techniques, as explained in the literature from Ansel Adams.
Several years later, after excursions into various segments such as infrared, landscape and spontaneous snapshot photography, I developed my own style, influenced by Czech photographers Michal Macku and Jan Saudek. Work from my most recent exhibit can be seen at http://see.you.at/photoart
In November 2002 I began combining ?classical" analogue and digital photography. Many of the expressive possibilities, before only obtained through incredible efforts in the dark room, were now at hand, and yet more precise and time-saving than previously.
Pictures occupy my thoughts long before they are transposed. Experiences, feelings, dreams.... these are the material from which the real forms arise. With the aid of files of my own and others, as well as 2-D and 3-D programs, the final picture is created.
The challenge for my finished images is to project and represent those fleeting moments of joy and fear, of high and low spirits, of fun and madness....
My pictures are regularly exhibited at http://pixart.at.tf and in many leading online galleries.

Statement
|
Since the end of 2002, I've dealt intensively in creatively combining digital photography with different rendering and image-processing programs.
With the motto ?everything is possible! - possibly is everything nothing?" I feel my way ahead, image for image. My own photos, foreign material - exchanged through the web, altered or left unchanged, partially or completely taken over...
To give fantasy free rein, to unabashedly refuse to reject unusual material to the cyber-bin, the possibility to continuously change and yet adhere to the original idea - all this has led me into a new wide-open territory.
Wide-open territory with unforseen creative possibilities.
Wide-open territory restricted only by one's own fantasy.
Wide-open territory where for me now, no limits are in sight...
