In Native American tales, the frog stands for transformation and growth. These meanings transcend into the spiritual world, where the frog symbolises cleansing, renewal, and the endless cycle of life and death.

Buddhism has a place in Burma's society that few other religions have elsewhere. It not only channels popular faith, and directly influences domestic politics, but also educates, feeds and supports millions, and represents a necessary pilgrimage for adults and children alike.
So far, Burma's Buddhism has operated in the closed circuit of Burma's isolation. Very little in lieu of influence from the outside world has reached Yangon, albeit Korean soap operas and pirated DVDs. How Buddhism will react to the ineluctable opening of the country will in my sense provide one of the most interesting cultural transformations of 21st century Asia.

The “line_up“ is a paperwork series I developed since 2010. The “liners” are made out of paper (Din A3/A4),
oil paint and graphite. The theme is the hermetical laws of polarity and movement. There is no ending and no beginning in any direction, just an endless movement. You have the possibility to arrange the papers like you want and that makes it an endless playground for my photo-work and the eyes of the viewers.

Butterflies represent transformation. They evolve from a caterpillar into a beautiful, wondrous being - much like a woman finding her inner goddess; her personal power.

Just several months ago, these young pretty boys were colorless, skittish and not much different in appearance from their sisters.
The transformation into beautiful young males is complete and in the spring they will compete for the attention of eligible females in the countryside and the cycle of pheasant life will continue for another generation.
Ringed-neck pheasants after hatching in spring take between 2-3 months to become independent and can have up to a dozen or more siblings. If they make it through their first harsh Minnesota winter, they begin their mating season in mid-March.
Unlike some other birds, they are not monogamous and normally have a small harem they defend against intrusion from other males.
Once the female begins preparation for nesting, the male is nowhere to be found. He doesn’t help with nest building nor does he get involved in raising the chicks. Sometimes if you are lucky when driving in the countryside you can catch glimpses of tired, frustrated females reading self-help books in order to cope.
Though our pheasants are hardy birds, their lifespan is heavily influenced by the availability of food and adequate habitat during our inclement winters and cold springs.
A severe winter can see up to 50% of the pheasant population perish.
