Artist and Photographer
based in Berlin
I am interested in artistic photography of people, places and landscapes. During my travels, I collect moments, impressions and notes which form a series of my photographs. An important thread in my photographs is the relationship between man, environment and technology, whereby the environment is to be understood as a space that includes the urban and suburban areas. The strong influence of man on the landscape, technological dependence and desolation in a modern urban world is my favourite artistic research topic. My other artworks, like media installations and objects you can find here: marcelinawellmer.com
