The photography reportage focuses on several aspects of life in Bosnia: its touristic potential, the presence of faith and society, everyday life in its capital Sarajevo.
Wonderful Bosnia – tourism
Faith in Bosnia
Several etnic and religious groups, mainly Muslim, Catholic and Orthodox, live together in Bosnia Herzegovina. Religion never was a focus for me nevertheless it’s hard to get around it when in Bosnia. Sometimes it reminds of a painful past. At other occasions it expresses faith, hoping for a better future.
Life in Sarajevo
I first visited Sarajevo back in 2014 on a motorcycle trip through the Balkans. We could only stay for two days and I told myself I had to get back to do a photo reportage about this intriguing city. I went back in 2017, 2018 and 2019 to look at different aspects of the city and its lovely inhabitants. These photos illustrate how I perceived the vibrant city and which parts of it spoke to me.
Daily lives in Sarajevo
I made a special photo series with portraits of some of the people of Sarajevo I met during my travels and shootings in the city.
