Portraits show people and people then see people – as if it were that simple.

When we review pictures of people, we see a perception, which the photographer has developed – an imagination, and nevertheless, the viewer, from outside can have the the feeling of being able to look deeper into the inside of the one portrayed.

Photography is the clearly visible, a surface which documents reality, behind which nothing physically exists – a place in which the entire world can be disguised.


I would like to familiarize the workshop participants with the fundamentals of portraiture, from a technical and artistic point of view.

Likewise, I would like to sensitize the participants for the mental spheres, the relationships and contradictions, which can appear in human image.
