My work deals with the state of the approximately 200,000 glaciers of this planet and the resulting responsibility for the 195 parties who signed the Paris Agreement.

The sea level would rise between 35 and 47 cm if all the glaciers melted completely. The glaciers currently contribute about a third of the observed sea-level rise.

The 195 original Cyanotypes were created with 195 melting ice cubes in September 2019. The work is my entry for the Aesthetica Art Prize.

My portrait series and photo installation shows construction worker in Manila with their traditional way of protecting themselves from sun, heat and dust in bustling downtown Manila. These guys are constantly shaping the rapid development of the Manila skyline. Usually, the workers operate behind construction site barriers and are barely noticed by the public. With the exhibition in the Ayala Museum 2018 I gave them a stage by showcasing the work in Manila.
