In my series "Charismatic Personalities" I explore how the challenges of growth shape the character of the tendrils. Some are graceful, some are frisky or affectionate, others are agitated or mysterious. Each is perfect in its uniqueness, with its own beauty, beyond stereotypes and norms.

I learned my photographic craft from the photographer Valentin Schwab. Over the years, I have increasingly abstracted my visual language. In my current work, I explore the representation of the subliminal, the ineffable and the ephemeral with abstract photographs.
