Always having taken a lot of photos from my early youth on, I was ‘infected’ with glaciers and high alpine landscapes when I first saw (and photographed) the Pasterze glacier in Austria more than fifteen years ago. This epiphany set my direction as a photographer, and since then I almost exclusively focused on mountain landscapes and glaciers in the Austrian and Swiss alps. 

I am captivated by the size and beauty of the mountains, but also by all the man-made interventions in nature: roads, railway lines, dams, slopes, ski lifts. In my work, I strive to not only show the beauty of the mountain landscape, but also document the relationship between the mountain landscape with man.
