My artistic career began in Bavaria when I met an acquaintance as a young girl who colored black and white photograms.

on and working with artists, I followed my own path in portrait photography, away from the usual studio portraits. Various journeys through Africa, Europe and the USA broadened my photographic perspective. Landscape photography in the field of tension between "untouched" nature and places and landscapes shaped by people became increasingly a focus of my work. During my studies, from 1989 on at the HdK (today UdK) in Berlin, I was occupied with the possibilities of digital photography, which opened up new artistic possibilities of expression for me. She has participated on many Solo- and Group Exibitions.
