Hidden in the courtyard of an office building in the Schwanthalerhöhe district of Munich, the savvy tourist will find a unique sculpture by Olafur Eliasson. The endless staircase is called Umschreibung which is the German word for ‘circumscription’ or ‘periphrasis’. The sculpture was finished in 2004 inside the headquarters of the KPMG trust.

A professional musician (pianist and composer), I have been working in photography for many years, with particular interest in image editing. I have overcome the concept of pure photography, in favor of a wider expression of the image, which is able to express a concept with force and immediacy through colors and lights. A great passion.
