Naturally Cold
Between emotional chaos and world-weariness - surreal and dystopian.
This series explores the subtle transformation of our society through the increasing presence of artificial intelligence and the drive for self-optimisation. I wanted to capture how technologies such as AI and the ideals of cosmetic surgery influence not only our self-image, but also our interpersonal relationships. The staging deliberately plays with artificiality and coldness - the figures often appear distant and their flawless surfaces almost make the human element disappear. I was fascinated by the tension between the pursuit of perfection and what is lost on an emotional level. It's not about passing judgement, but about making this fine line between optimisation and alienation visible. Each picture in the series harbours a certain ambivalence: appealing and perfect at first glance, on closer inspection they reveal an inner emptiness. The motifs invite the viewer to reflect on the effects of these developments.
