ABOUT ME & MY ART

I’m a German-Scottish artist and designer, living and working in Oban on Scotland's Northwest coast. My art explores the land from above, both rural and urban, blending natural forms with human-made marks.

I curate Colours Scotland and am a founding partner at the branding studio Freytag Anderson. I studied at Gray’s School of Art and have lived and worked in New York, London, and Sydney before making Scotland my home.

The [Made by Land] series draws inspiration from landscapes forcibly cleared of people across Scotland. My work captures a profound sense of place and the mystery evoked by the remnants of human activity in a desolate but beautiful landscape. The land lies empty now, the abandoned villages, roofless croft houses, and fading field lines — the only traces of lives once lived. 'We are all made by the land'.

In my [Everywhere Leads Everywhere] series I explore the tension between disorientation and discovery within the urban landscape. Inspired by my love of running, the work reflects my belief in the interconnectedness of our lives—less like a straight path and more like an intricate map, where every route converges, and getting lost is a rare gift, where 'Everywhere leads everywhere, eventually'.
