DEAFISCHER
* Cinematic Photography
Born in Hamburg and living fifteen years in Portugal, I've always felt inspired by multicultural environments. This unique upbringing, along with my father's love and knowledge of photography, had a true creative impact on my work. I studied media design and photography and earned my master's in media culture, visual communication, and psychology at the University of Fine Arts and at the University of Hamburg and established my artistic career primarily through photography in the areas of portrait, documentary, fashion, and art.
Cultural heritage and identity are the heart of my interests. My focus is on the link between cultures and media, such as photography, performing arts, and film. I create compelling narratives by using vibrant and complex color schemes where women are at center stage. Now based in Hamburg again, but always deeply connected with Lisbon.
Finding the diversity of the different countries and their people inspiring, I am using them as the backdrop for my photography to create vibrant and complex imaginary worlds. The visual storytelling is connected to the feeling of an epic, film-like scenery.
