Artist's Books
Since the turn of the millennium I have been working mainly as a media artist, but in the 90s I worked a lot with painting and printmaking.
During these years I have made a number of artist’s books that have played an important role in my development as a media artist. This relates to the time-based aspect as well as the transformation of images and visual poetry. Each book is a sequence that tells a story or shows an evolution, just like my video works.
Recently I started to work with artist’s books again, combined with video and animation.
April 1-24, 2022: Exhibition Positions of artistic book and text production, Galerie VBK Berlin.
