born 1977 in munich, kirsten is currently living in adelsried.
working as an architect, designing and creating are important
parts of her every day life.
fascinated by the simplicity and the means of expression of black &
white photography, she started six years ago with an inherited
reflex camera. working with different medium format cameras for
several years, kirsten finally fell in love with pinhole photography.
capturing not merely a short moment, but rather the floating of
time in a very simple and expressive way - that are the essentials.
"It seems almost if the pinhole camera takes you beneath the surface
of reality as we know it into another dimesnion, another place ..."
