(born 1980) is a visual artist. His photographs, video projections, and site-specific installations consist of the combination of incidental interventions and their recording and reproduction. The movements test the gaps, vacancies, or transitional possibilities of architecture, as well as the boundaries of photographic and cinematic images. They relate to performative practices from the history of art and film, and react in diverging ways to functionality, rationalization, and conventions. His works question a human perception that is increasingly shaped by virtual realities with precise arrangements of immediate physical experience and the photographic image.

In 2016 he received the Scholarship for Contemporary German Photography of the Alfried Krupp von Bohlen and Halbach Foundation, and a Fellowship at the Villa Aurora in Los Angeles.
