    Coming from a two-dimensional illustration background, I have developed a strong interest in working with the body as a means of expression during my master

    studies. I have always been interested in fantastic worlds, but often found there was a lack of reference to the present day. This applies also to the topic of ancient

    mythology, often visualized through archaic or clichd illustrations. Accordingly, within my graduation project I investigated the medium of Body Based

    Character Design by exemplifying it through reinterpretations of the Norse Gods of the weekdays. The result is the photo series GUDEGRY (Dawn of the Gods), showing seven characters within their own realm, developed through working

    3-dimensionally and incorporating the human bodymasks, costumes and settingsdocumented and staged through photography.

    The picture series Manmade Mutants is an examination of how illustration works outside books, in a third dimension. The six characters are hybrids built by

    exaggerating the known characteristics of the 20th century freaks, and staging them in a modern environment. By presenting these naturally grown deformations

    in a glamorous lightlike tumors, polyps or hornificationswe balanced between fascination and disgust, compassion and mischief, repulsion and attraction,

    glamour and tackiness. Project developed in collaboration with Kathrin Heimel.

    Oh du lieber Augustin [Oh my dear friend Augustin] is a comic for the Swiss comic competition FUMET TO which dealt with the topic virus.

    Therefore I illustrated the old Austrian folk song Oh du lieber Augustin. It was published in Illusion Tart 1 VIREN .

  • The story takes place in the Narrenturm ( The madhouse Tower) of Vienna, today the museum of the Pathological Anatomical Institute, in former days

    a psychiatric hospital. By playing his song, Augustin revives the preparations and conducts them out of the tower to spread the plague out across Vienna.

    In the project Urban Amazon I investigated how patterns influence the silhouette of a garment as well as how the impression of a pattern changes through the form

    and in the end why and how some patterns work on the human body. The project was a lot about experimenting and researching and resulted in a womens collection dealing with contrasts in all its forms nature against urbanity, dullness against

    intensity, rigidity against fluency creating the Urban Amazon.

    The others and I explores the contrast between the way individuals choose to present themselves on social networking websites, in comparison to how others might

    perceive them. Inspired by an anonymous facebook profile which featured only posts, comments and friends list, and no photographs, I developed a mask illustrating my

    own interpretation of this anonymous individual.

    book of fairy taleS 2010

    Es war einmalzweimaldreimal [Oncetwicethriceupon a time] is a book of fairytales, which I designed and illustrated for my bachelor thesis at the Muthesius

    Academy of Fine Arts and Design, containing three different versions of the Sleeping Beauty. Many of the fairytales told by the Brothers Grimm were adapted

    from older versions. Through this project I visualized how the motives changed through the course of timewhat was left out, what was added and why. The three

    different stories are presented next to each other within the layout, giving the reader the possibility to read each story separately, compare them to each other,

    or read them as a whole.

    The four different illustrations are dealing with the prophecy, the sleep, the awakening, and the punishment. The illustration technique is a mixture of crayon

    coloured drawings and photoshop collage.The pages are divided and cut into three parts in order to create a new fairy tale by combining the whole story to a plot

    which the viewer chooses by his own hands.
