A border crosser between photography, painting and printmaking, Sven creates mixed media art out of the ordinary. Enthusiastic about Rauschenberg & Co early on, he produces art since teenage years. His affinity for the printmaking has paved his way to enter the professional art world with his multi award winning first oversized art book. Devoting his time to pure photography while traveling and the subsequent work in the studio when it comes to putting extra layers of color or graphic components on his photos. Sven collaborates with art galleries, art consultants, architects, fashion and interior designer worldwide to bring art projects to life. The range of used materials include acrylic, resin, aluminium, copper, wood, canvas, lambda and dibond. Sven is originally from Berlin and is based in South East Asia for 8 years.
