Nepal is a land of wealth. People from more than 100 different ethnic groups, a
diverse, vibrant tradition and numerous cultural treasures. Various religions live in
peace and harmony. All around of a breathtaking scenery.
This country has enchanted me with all its treasures. Not a single day of my trip I
missed something, again I got a new gift.
Especially the people of Nepal have captured my heart. I visited people who seem
to live in a different time. In keeping with their surroundings in the midst of nature
under primitive conditions. Their aura is incredibly rich. I am impressed with their
inner peace. Their religion and traditions give them support. I feel their deep roots.
Everything is still in a natural cycle. Much of what has been lost long ago in my
culture.
I learned a lot from the Nepalis. I feel great thanks and want to show their unique
dignity.

Nepal´s dignity

Ich zeige Aufnahmen der Erde von oben die während meiner Reisen im Flugzeug entstanden sind. Die Fotos offenbaren die Schönheit unseres Planeten in verschiedener Weise. Dargestellt werden Wüsten, Flüsse, Berge und Städte. Ich möchte anhand dieser Naturschauspiele im Betrachter die Liebe zu unserem Planeten wecken. Ich möchte bewusst machen welch ein Geschenk unser Lebensraum ist und das wir dies schätzen sollten. Unsere Welt von oben zu sehen bedeutet für mich, die Zusammenhänge zu verstehen. Der Blick aus dem Fenster wird zum Einblick in meinen Lebensraum.

a unique look at our exceptionally beautiful bodies! 
A coorperation with the body painter Striez.Art.

As we all know each and everyone of us is unique. 
Then why do we keep chasing after unattainable standards 
of beauty? Is this still a remnant of our animalistic past? 
Would it be too easy to simply love ourselves the way we are? 
When we possess charisma, wouldn't that make our protruding 
ears look sweet and wouldn't our scars tell of the most amazing 
adventures? Or what about our many little freckles that are 
responsible for so many of our many nicknames. 
We refuse to imagine a world in which everyone looks alike. 
How about you? 
Admittingly, changing ones perspective can be a difficult process 
indeed. In order to accept ourselves the way we are we need 
to turn away from the conventional point of view and face any 
judgement directed at us with a sense of calmness. 
However it is well worth it! 
The persons shown all bodily possess something special. 
Something that is part of their body and tells their lives' story. 
They have experienced that it is possible to look at their 
bodies from a different perspective through finding love for 
themselves. We are so excited to be able to share this feeling 
with you. The photographs portray strong personalities living life. 
We hope that you are able to discover this unique change 
in perspective for yourself and henceforth 
discover your own true beauty!
