Michael Anhalt

digital - documentary - experimental - photography - media

My work as a visual artist can be characterized as a transition from the depiction of the individual reality towards the collective meaning of the media image in society. By focusing on its use, mediation and distribution of the media image in times of internet and reflecting on the phenomena's in the democratized media process and the construction of collective truth. It results in a cacophony of realities and truths, with the process of losing its context through the flood of images we are at mercy of.
