VISUAL ARTS & DESIGN

I am a media artist, photographer and traveller who creates visual experiences for art and music projects, theatre and film. I bring staged spaces to life with imaginative video projections and create explosive concert stages. As a video maker, I conceive, shoot and edit video features and music clips. I photograph artists in their element, create cover artwork for musicians and tell travel stories in the form of photo essays. Deeper insights into my creative processes I offer in my workshops and seminars within the realm of cultural education.
