I am a wave
I am the ocean
I am the universe

This is my subtitle that already reveals and sums up the essence of this work. It is my personal spiritual approach of being in the world, my way of connection and communion with the ground of being. A kind of unity and sync with the sacred flow, the elan vital. I experience awe in nature in manifold ways; I am drawn with all my senses to the collective wonder of existence witnessing its unfolding into the appearances of “the 10.000 things“, marveling patterns of matter shifting constantly in a fluid cosmic dance of waves and particles. All is projected and reflected like in the jewels of Indra’s Net, entangled interconnectedness.

Most of my images are shot in Infrared in a spectrum (850 nm) that the human eye cannot detect but that a lot of more-than-human-beings are able to perceive. Wandering the shores of ignorance and expanding my horizon I like both the idea of exploring reality beyond the limits of human perception, kind of lifting the veils… And the curious and empathetic attempt to envision how more-than-human-beings might perceive reality.

As opposed to the dominant focus on transcendence in Western culture it is about essential pure immanence that surrounds us, an immediate physical and emotional experience that grounds us in the world. It is a call to awaken to the sacred in the here and now.

This work reflects on our cultural values, the imbalances that shape us, and the shadows we ignore. In a world dominated by disconnection, exploitation, and fragmentation, it is a call to reawaken to the interconnectedness of all things. It is an invitation to shift our mindset—a plea for a world that remembers its place within the greater whole.

This series is still evolving and there are more images and motifs, different manifestation… Among these is a handmade dummy book realized in the amazing Masterclass of Origini Edizioni in May 2025.

Inspired by Rilke ( I live my life in widening circles ) I am circling around this series:
As all views are partial views, with each approach I am emphasizing different qualities, exploring and playing with perception and consciousness; details, structure, sculpting presence…

 

Here is my composition for an installation called web of life:

Inspired by Indra’s Net, this work visualizes our interconnectedness and draws attention to the space between—to relationships as the central, if not the defining variable. Even quantum physics confirms: relation is more than the sum of its parts. What defines an atom is not just its existence, but its entanglement with the whole. Furthermore, as all views are partial, each fragment of a unique perspective still enriches the greater whole.

 

I am so excited that this installation will be on display in a slightly altered version at the Gallery of Art at Eastern Washington University, USA – as part of the group exhibition INTERVENTION by eco.echo art collective, from November 2026 to February 2027.

 

This is how I envision each of these images look in terms of materiality:

Another playful approach with the story of the blind monks exploring an elephant and the famous Zen Garden in Kyoto in mind;
fragments that invite a meditation on the nature of completeness.

 

A playful installtion has already been on view at Johnson Exhibtion Gallery, Middlebury College, Vermont, USA  – our group exhibition called Persistence of Consience, 2026 April.

A glimpse of some dyptichs where I contemplate patterns and rhythms of creation and flow:

Inspired by C.G.Jung, I ponder the circle as a symbol for unity and wholeness in the unconsciousness rendered as square on the conscious level and the squaring of the circle in alchemy as well as the synthesis of opposites.

And of course, I played with manifestations using alternative processes ( non toxic photographic prints).
More to come…
