She rests between breath and gravity,
a body stretched into quiet resistance.
Light skims across skin like a held thought,
revealing tension, release, and the fragile balance in between.
Nothing moves—yet everything is alive
in this brief pause where strength becomes stillness.
She stands suspended between shadow and radiance,
a figure half-born of the forest, half-formed of breath and memory.
The antlers curve around her like echoes of an ancient animal grace,
turning her body into a quiet myth—
fierce, fragile, and defiantly alive.
Her face hidden, her presence unmistakable.
A moment carved from light, becoming its own wild language.
Im Zentrum der Aufnahme steht eine nackte Frau neben einem einzelnen Stuhl.
Der Stuhl dient als einziges Objekt im Bild und dient als Stütze und Bezugspunkt. Die Hand der Frau ruht auf der Stuhllehne, während ihr Körper frei im Raum steht.
Die Wiesenfläche und der angrenzende Wald schaffen eine ruhige, reduzierte Bildatmosphäre.
At the center of the photograph stands a naked woman next to a solitary chair.
The chair is the only object in the image, serving as a support and point of reference. The woman's hand rests on the chair back, while her body stands freely in space.
The meadow and the adjacent forest create a tranquil, minimalist atmosphere.
Inspired by Marie Chouinard
The Lamb, das Lamm.
Da steht es. Schaut dich an, wendet sich weg.
Du schaust es an; passt es in die Umgebung, in den Kontext?
Du schaust es wieder an, wendest dich weg. berührst, fühlst, betastest es.
In unser Leben treten Situationen, Anblicke, Geschehnisse, die wir nicht zuordnen können, die nicht zu passen scheinen. Machen wir das Beste daraus!
Danke, Emilia.
„A Wing Made of Disappearance“ is part of a long term project. The series “Featherest” explores moments of dissolution, transition, and the shifting boundaries of identity. The figure within the work does not function as a portrait but as a surface for projection—an entity suspended between visibility and disappearance. It is less a photo of something than a photo about something: an image that resists depiction in favor of evocation.
Through controlled motion, blurred contours, and the presence of dark, feather-like structures, the series creates a visual language of transformation. These forms operate simultaneously as shield, veil, and catalyst, suggesting both protection and metamorphosis. The body becomes an impression rather than an object—an emotional resonance rather than a fixed shape.
Light fractures the form; shadow gathers around it. In this collision of atmosphere and gesture, photography moves toward painting, toward something more fluid and uncertain. The work dwells in the in-between: the moment where identity becomes mutable, where the self is revealed not through clarity but through its unraveling.
“Featherest” invites the viewer into this threshold space—a place where the image does not explain but suggests, where interpretation becomes an act of intimacy, and where the unseen becomes momentarily perceptible.

Tanz. Dunkelheit. Schwarzweiß.
Jovanna schwingt das Tuch, die Schleife. Immer wieder sich drehend, beugend, wieder aufstehend, so verschafft sie dem Betrachter viele Ansichten.
Danke, Jovanna.

An alpine dairyman in the rhythm of Goaßlschnölln – a gesture that carries echoes of the mountains. It is not only movement, but memory: heritage woven into sound and motion. Within a gallery of diverse visions, this image speaks as a cultural voice: Tradition as resonance, guiding the future.
