Hi, my name is: WOLF189

HI, MY NAME IS” ist der ziemlich einfallslose Titel für eine kontinuierliche Interview-Reihe mit jungen Fotografen, Musikern, Künstlern und inspirierenden Persönlichkeiten unserer Zeit. Da wir euch WOLF189 bereits vorgestellt haben, stellen wir dem anerkannten und für seine hervorragenden Arbeiten verehrten Fotografen und Creative Director im heutigen Teil der Serie einige Fragen über sein Schaffen, die Ästhetik von Film und hübsche Models.




I AM WOLF189

WOLF189 … mostly in Las Vegas and at times in LA. I photograph, make experimental short films, write, paint, think, learn, try to see … try not to forget.

motivation, inspiration + influences
my motivation is learning and getting better everyday … and life and people are my inspirations … as well as good cinema, music, new places, love stories & litterature. there are few intense moments in my life which are still influencing me & my work to this day. they hunt me in a positive or negative way and I always try to find a way to balance them …

when did you start photography
when I was about 8 years old …

film or digital
film because it is a medium that I feel closer to … I can choose the aesthetics, grains, textures before hand and commit to them while composing my frames …

i’m in love with
moments … those simple heartfelt moments that can carry us for a decade … those moments that often go unnoticed and unappreciated …

i’m dreaming of
meaningful kisses, ocean, freedom, kindness, working, creating & creating freely …

nude vs. dressed
I don’t care … if dressed, they need to be suitable for the idea and concept …

your favorite model
all of them as long as they have no ego …

what’s next
so much is going on that I don’t know how to categorize and explain them … however I’ll continue to photgraph and make short experimental videos and art direct for as long as it is possible …

last but not least: your question
You all know that you are going to die shortly, right? Then why all of this greed? Why you want so much more than you really need? Stay productive and become successful but also stay kind and help others when you can.

THANKS WOLF
