ABOUT
The Leipzig-based photographer »Nietze«, born in 1988 in Berlin, is an artist who engages with sociocritical and social issues. Her focus is always on the human being. Through her photographic work, she explores culture and considers it as an important contribution to the cityscape and our coexistence. In 2021, »Nietze« published her first book titled »Kein Halt mehr«. This book documents the standstill of Berlin during the pandemic and provides insights into the art and culture industry. The book is a testament to emptiness and stagnation in a city that is otherwise vibrant and pulsating.
»Nietze's« images are characterized by their naturalness and roughness. They are lively, compelling, and honest, mostly in black and white. The photographer rejects conventions and advocates for a better society. »Nietze« is a talented artist who contributes to society through her work. Her images are not only aesthetically appealing but also an expression of a critical attitude towards the existing conditions. Through her photographs, she invites us to see the world with different eyes and to advocate for a fairer and more solidary society. With her eye for detail and her ability to capture the essence of a moment, »Nietze« creates a connection between the viewer and the depicted.
