During the pandemic in 2021 I had a wonderful trip around the world. In addition to the portraits I made during the trip I collected some statements and experiences from the subjects of my images. The pandemic had such a profound impact on everyone for so long, my goal was to keep feelings, thoughts and experience at the surface and record them in image and word. Three years later I did a second, but smaller trip around the world.
In 2024 I decided to create a book and to publish 58 portraits of 57 people and one cat I made during these two trips.
The book is meant as a contemporary testimony of one visual artist, that depicts a unique and challenging time for all of humankind through the world lens of music and art.
Thanks to all who were part of the project and to all who were supporting me over all the past years.
