The last few years I was wondering how and where I live. I was asking the question over and over again where is my home and where am I the happiest. People would always tell me your home is where your heart is. Where do I belong and what is real? I grew up in Switzerland, but left Europe with 21 and started a new adventure in South Africa. How and where I live is very difficult to tell. I'm someone who will take every challenge, try to get as much out of a place as possible. I'm scared to call something just yet home, because as soon as I do there will be goodbyes again. Home is within me. How I live is who I'm. I photographed existing photos through physical barriers. I photographed them underwater, covered in oil, salt or paint and in this was give commentary on negation of memory.
Life is harsh sometimes and it feels like I'm not getting anywhere at the moment. I would love to switch off, even if it is just for a split second and drift into a world where everything seems to be beautiful. Nick Brandt gave me the chance to dream for a while. His work is outstanding. He captures stunning photographs of the nature and the wildlife. Some of his photographs are unreal and let you forget the real world for a moment. What an amazing photographer he is... That would be one of my dreams... Living in the bush for a while, experiencing the peace and quiet and capture special, different shots of wildlife and nature.
