We are grateful for being featured in this week's issue of @zeitmagazin with an excerpt from our work »The Perfect Crime: Concerning the Murder of Reality«. The overrepresentation of fictional murder in various German TV-series marks the starting point of our examination of the effects of crime fiction on our perception and behavior.
Big thanks to @milena_carstens for making this possible!

Sneak peek into my graduation publication “A circle of 12 gold stars on a blue background”. The book closely obeys the rules and guidelines for publications as outlined in the visual identity manual of the European Commission.
I am looking forward to showing the work in its entirety for the first time as part of this year’s graduation exhibition at @schoolofartsgent from June 27th till June 30th. Drop by if you have the chance!

Two images from my current photographic MA project “A circle of 12 gold stars on a blue background” got featured in the @nytimes, accompanying an opinion piece by Belgian essayist Anton Jäger. In his text, titled „My Country Shows What Europe Has Become“, he takes a closer look at the current state of Belgian politics as a seismograph for political developments all across the European Union.

For @lecho.be I had the opportunity to meet former French Prime Minister, EU Commissioner, and Brexit negotiator Michel Barnier. The interview, conducted by Serge Quoidbach can be read in this weekend‘s issue of the paper.

For @lecho.be, I had the great pleasure of spending a few minutes with Belarusian opposition leader and civil rights activist Svetlana Tikhanovskaïa at a hotel in Brussels’ European district. The interview was conducted by @vincentgeoris and published on 12 March.

I’m very happy about this feature in issue 0 of a new magazine, produced by the team of @12f.eu around Sebastian Stricker. The spreads offer a small insight into my work on the political in the city of Brussels. The images originate both from my M.A. graduation project, as well as from editorial assignments for @sz and @nytimes.
It was a pleasure to read many of the interviews with protagonists, such as Robert Menasse, Nicu Popescu, and André Wilkens.
Many thanks to @sarischildt_ for the nice edit.

I am very happy to have contributed to a @nytimes opinion piece written by German journalist @sauerbreyanna, on the various challenges German Chancellor Friedrich Merz is currently facing. The photo was taken at the Chancellor’s press conference during the informal EU leaders’ summit in Alden Biesen, Belgium, a few weeks ago. Many thanks to @kerrcirilo for making this possible.
