DAILY JOURNAL

So far, I’ve held two successful workshops in May and June at our photography club. These focused on the basics of photography combined with a field excursion. In July, I’ll conclude the series with the third and final part of the workshop.

Next weekend, a smartphone photography workshop is on the agenda. I’ll be introducing participants to mobile photography, showing them which features they can use during their holidays and how many creative possibilities there are to enhance their compositions using just their phone.

I’m really looking forward to it!

I have great news! In July, I’ll be part of a larger exhibition. Several artists will be showcasing their work, and I’m honored to exhibit my photography alongside them. Over the past few weeks, I’ve had many inspiring conversations with fellow artists, and I’m truly grateful to be part of this small group. A large audience and representatives from public institutions are expected to attend — I’m really looking forward to it. At the same time, I’m also working on my own solo exhibition. There are still a few contacts I need to call to pitch my concept and the location. Stay tuned!

Phew, I haven’t shared an update in several weeks. That’s because I’ve been traveling a lot lately, taking tons of photos, preparing some long-term projects, and working on a major collaboration. All of that takes time, and on top of it, I’m also planning my new exhibition and upcoming workshops. There’s a lot going on, but I’ll do my best to keep you updated! Talk to you soon!

It’s getting warmer, the days are getting longer, and that means more motivation to get out into nature and take photos! At the end of March, I have a small project documenting an anniversary— a great way to kick off spring. Another small project involves photographing and archiving some objects. Right now, I’m painting my old picture frames black to give them a more elegant look. I’ll be testing the products I received as soon as possible and creating some photos and videos about them. March is an exciting month! Let’s go!

Spring is slowly getting into gear. I’ve planned several projects, such as organizing an exhibition in the old town hall, another one in the city, and attending various events to expand my network. In May, there’s the famous “Japan Day” in Düsseldorf, and I’ll definitely be going. Before that, I want to explore the district. There’s a lot to do, and I want to capture spring as a photography theme as much as possible.
