The will to pursuit one's individual happiness is the driving force behind many of our actions. But when ambition and reality clash the outcome is often not the desired one.


The Pursuit Of Happiness

Frustration and anxiety are born from the fear that we cannot control the outcome of our choices. In the series ‘SCREAM !!’ Christoph takes a look at this sometimes disturbing aspect of human nature. The idyllic imagery lures the observer and captures his interest, only to turn him into a witness of human despair: By the time the subject has reached the screaming stage, all control has been surrendered and all that is left is rage and frustration. 

SCREAM!

In todays western civilization, dominated by the paradigm of individualisation, the individual strives for perfection in the creation of his project of life. But only minor incidents and disturbing factors confront the person concerned with the fact that even a liberal and engineered world does not permit the utmost control over every single detail. 
The recently completed series of images Trouble in Paradise allures the observer through its idyllic imagery, captures his interest but only to turn him into a witness of human failure.
