ABOUT
The photographer »Nietze«, born in 1988 in Berlin and now living in Leipzig, is an artist who deeply engages with societal issues and the cultural sector. Her work always centers on people. Through her photographic works, she explores the cultural landscape, viewing it as an important contribution to the city's image and our coexistence. In 2021, »Nietze« published her first book titled »Kein Halt mehr«. This book documents Berlin's standstill during the pandemic and provides insights into the art and cultural scene. It is a testament to the emptiness and stagnation in a city that usually pulses with life.
»Nietze's« pictures are characterized by their naturalness and rawness. They are vivid, captivating, and honest, mostly in black and white. The photographer breaks conventions and advocates for a better society. »Nietze« is a talented artist, and her images are not only aesthetically pleasing but also express a critical stance towards the existing conditions. Through her photographs, she invites us to view the world from a new perspective. Thanks to her eye for detail and her ability to capture the essence of a moment, »Nietze« creates a deep connection between the viewer and the subject.
Since 2022, she has been working on a project titled »Hidden Heroes«, which documentary explores the subject of endometriosis.
