Poetic Transformation | Artistic Statement
Theatre Photography as Fine Art — Beyond Documentation
In my artistic engagement with the theatre, I have understood theatrical productions not as mere objects of documentation, but as points of departure for fine art photography. Through poetic transformation, the scenes are translated into autonomous visual worlds that reflect the multifaceted tension between light and shadow. My photography opens up a new space between the staging, my subjective perception, and the individual interpretation and reading of the viewer. In this way, a visual language emerges that deliberately detaches itself from the stage production and instead explores the essence of the theatrical in an autonomous artistic form.
