Mahalla „UNRUHE“ – Not Art Week Berlin

Berlin, Sep 2026

The art week berlin 2026 did not invite the Mahalla, so this location decided to make their own artistic expression and exhibition with „UNRUHE“. I was contributing and volonteering for this for the build, did photography and had one official art performance „Yellow to Red“ for this.
Here I want to showcase some of my pictures I did during this exhibtion and event in Berlin-Oberschöneweide.

Rave the Planet’26

Rave the Planet – Berlin

Berlin, Aug 2026

I was invited to be in the media team of Rave the Planet – The Love Parade Successor organised again from the team around Dr. Motte. I wanted to document and talk to these just normal people joining the rave on the street of Berlin between Siegessäule and Brandenburger Tor at that saturday. The day was so hot and it was really kind of dangerous to dance if people did not take care, drink enough water and make enough rests. The mood was lovely with much compassion and just good vibes.

Abyss’25

Mahalla: Into the Abyss with Orkgotik

Berlin Oberschöneweise 2025

I had the chance to make pictures from the performance „Into the Abyss“ a drag event at the Mahalla.
This is a part from the show and covers the exceptional transformation of the artist into something I would call „art species“. This reminded me very much into Kafkas book „Die Verwandlung“ (or engl „The Metamorphosis“).

Draw & Dance’25

Draw & Dance’25

Berlin 2025, Funkhaus

I had the opportunity to participate into a live drawing event with photography.
I wanted to explore again the blurred dance photography with long exposure timing to get the dance in his movement and action. The essence of a dance is the dance and not a still photography nor a still drawing.

I was really happy with my results and the beautiful location and setting and the marvelous dancers.

Jin in Dust’17

Jin in Dust and Colors

Hamburg, 2017

meeting and working with Jin Young Kim the first time. I had a rough idea in my head about body paint, sand ritual
very much inspired by my recent visits to burning man usa, my curiousity about butoh, my former project with Alyssa on Butoh, and the ritual paintings worldwide. Completely unsure if I could convince Jin to participate into this or if I just do some other pictures at the nearby lake.

We actually did not really talk or plan a lot .. just drove to the location, I asked if I could paint her and then I started with some painting and all other steps evolved over the time as a dance in art and paint and sand and photography.
The vibe was trust and I felt accepted and felt welcomed to explore my changing painting on her step by step and layer on layer, as Jin also contributed to modify these with the sand and movements..
