Welcome to my blog. This is a place where I think out loud, show you what I’m up to in the studio, share impressions of inspiring events or everyday moments that moved me. Some entries are carefully curated essays, others are just a few thoughts, sometimes written in English and sometimes in German.

Bumiller Collection: A Hidden Gem
A Hidden Treasure Collection
English.
Did you know that in the heart of Bamberg’s old town, hidden in a medieval building accessible from a narrow side-alley, there’s an incredible collection of Islamic art from the Middle Ages? Neither did I, until recently. The Bumiller Collection includes about 6500 objects, crafted from metal, ceramics and stone, with most of them roughly dating to a period between the 7th and 13th century BCE and originating from what today encompasses Iran, Uzbekistan and Afghanistan.
Today, we spent the morning absorbed in the aura of this meticulously restored historical building and the treasures it contains. Highly recommended.
Antikmarkt Bamberg: Eindrücke
Antikmarkt 2023

Antikmarkt in Bamberg: Ein zelebrierter Bummeltag, in dem die ganze Stadt mit Antiquitäten aller Art gefüllt ist, und alles von Trödel bis zu echten Kunstschätzen zu finden ist. Dieses Jahr besonders schön im noch fast spätsommerlichen Sonnenschein.
It’s winter. I cherish this white and noiseless time between the bustle of our Christmas season and the start of the new year. Since moving to Europe, it’s taken me a few years to learn to fully appreciate winter. Now, I know it’s one of the reasons I wanted to move here in the first place: I needed a real winter, I needed its pause and reflection, its going-underground, its gathering-of-forces, its quiet stripping away of the unnecessairy, its gestation for new creativity to emerge.
