Thrown into this
Analog photography, digital double exposure (2023)

This is the story of an angel after his fall.
The images serve as an analogy between the fall of the angel and the unsolicited throwing into the world of every existing human being. The philosopher Martin Heidegger describes this phenomenon as "thrownness." Heidegger understands this to mean the inevitability of existence and the arbitrary, opaque, and unknowable processes of nature that lead to the constitutive fact of having to be. The series explores the ontological question of the nature of being and our shared destiny of existence.
