The story behind


I was born in 1986 in Unna, Germany — far from high peaks and polar landscapes. Yet they drew me in.
Over time, I found my way into these worlds, learning their scale, their silence, and their demands.
From glaciers to the Alps, Himalayas, and Andes, I learned to work with altitude, cold, and light.
These experiences shaped how I see the world — and how I translate its contrasts: the fragile and the monumental.
