Heft Photograph

Instead of dealing directly with issues of migration and bodily absence (as was explored in my early research), there has recently been a shift towards considering the importance and relevance of existence on a personal level, not just in one place or another, but more so in an existential sense. Based on intensely personal events, my current interest lies in the philosophical premise of the fragility of human existence and the attempt for us as human beings to overcome feelings of insignificance. The aim of my current studio practice is to communicate the metaphysical notion of human existential significance or lack thereof and to translate this into three-dimensional form. Photography is regularly used a s a supportive medium.
