Abstract art

My approach to abstract and minimalist photography is unique and profound. I transform everyday scenes into artworks that invite wonder and contemplation.
My work is characterized by a keen eye for detail and an ability to reveal the beauty of the everyday and the unexpected. I am inspired by the Japanese aesthetic of wabi-sabi, which celebrates beauty in imperfection and impermanence. This is clearly reflected in my work, where I capture the traces of time and nature on materials.

My photography resonates with the art movement of suprematism, focusing on fundamental geometric shapes and pure colors. I find inspiration in artists such as Kazimir Malevich, known for his "White Square on White Background," and the minimalist approach of Ellsworth Kelly and Robert Ryman. Their ability to create a profound visual experience with limited means is a continuous source of inspiration for me.

I also draw inspiration from abstract expressionists like Jackson Pollock and Willem de Kooning, and the industrial aesthetics of Aaron Siskind and Bernd and Hilla Becher. Their work has taught me to capture the beauty of decay and industrial architecture, which is clearly reflected in my photos.

My photos invite the viewer to pause and reflect on the stories hidden in everyday objects. I strive to convey the emotion and wonder I experience while photographing to the viewer.
My work offers a contemplative and reflective experience, with the beauty of the everyday and the unexpected at its core. Through my photos, I hope you discover new perspectives and view the world around you with different eyes.
