Based in Vienna, Austria, I work as an interdisciplinary artist and puppet-maker.

What I do moves somewhere between installation, writing, performance, film- and printmaking. In my projects I am searching for different ways of (re)telling stories around ecological transformation, that are mainly carried by folklore and embodied knowledge, and interweave the real with the speculative. I am interested how these stories can extend our imagination towards the perception of other beings, foster curiosity and a sensual connection to our environment.

Besides frequent collaborations with people from various fields of practice or knowledge, I am also part of the Watering Words collective, which functions as a longterm conversation between three artists and different bodies of water in our respective countries.

Past awards, exhibitions, screenings or performances include the Talent Stipend of Upper Austria, Klima Biennale Vienna, Crossing Europe Film Festival, Land Art Movement Biennale Águeda, Upad Theatre Festival Novi Sad and Chicago Short Film Festival.
