I met this gentleman in an area named Durban Deep in Johannesburg, South Africa an illegal mining community that is highly notorious for rape and murder. It’s a place where the government has turned their back on the people of this community as a lot of them are from poor countries around Africa in peril because of famine and war; most have entered the country illegally. This specific gentleman left Zimbabwe in pursuit of greener pastures and he ended up in Durban Deep as a “zama zama” (a local name for illegal mining which means “trying trying” as a direct translation from Zulu to English). There is a belt of gold in the earth that’s still rich. He goes underground for days in time to try his luck 20km down in the ground and sometimes he is in good luck and at times, not so much.
I took this image of children playing on the street, a common site in this area. I had just come from Durban Deep where I spent quite an extensive time shooting. This place is a very colorful high-density neighborhood right close in proximity to the illegal mining area next to it. The contrast was very fascinating for me, less than a mile away from this place is a place where unspeakable acts of violence and crimes against humanity.
Deep in the community of illegal mining in Durban Deep, a place where its easier to find people who have been shot than those who have not; I found this girl staring back at me with curiosity. She was sitting next to a “tuk shop” (a small local shop made of scrap metal that sells edibles and beer) filled with such innocence whilst she knit away whilst humming to a sweet serenade.
I saw this boy holding a Vuvusela (a trumpet originally made in South Africa used to add cheer by fans when people are playing football infamous from the South Africa 2010 FIFA World Cup) parading in the streets of Kliptown, Soweto, Johannesburg. He decided to impress me and blew it to make a loud sound that echoed in the streets nearby.
I saw this young girl shying away from the camera whilst eating yogurt in Kliptown. I gave a gesture that I wanted to take a picture of her and she covered her head instead. After I had taken this picture, I decided to keep it, we shared a brief laughter just after I had photographed her. In Kliptown you can find a number of buildings with bright graffiti on its walls. Although it’s a low-density community, you can tell creativity is alive within its youth even though most of them do not go to school as their parents cannot afford it.
A neighborhood surrounding Kliptown, a young horse breeder lounges around on a couch in the heat of the day under a tree. Horses are used quite a lot in this neighborhood for transportation and for carrying heavy loads.
The daughter of a horseman walks past and stops and glances back at me. Without any clear intention she stands there for a few minutes as we are doing a stare down, she then keeps walking and continues on. The surrounding areas of Kliptown are mainly built of metal scrap sheets and I found it fascinating how such a place would have horses as from my knowledge they are a symbol the high-class society.
A woman and daughter sit on a log on a field of bright pretty yellow plants. You can almost not tell of how deep and disturbing her life story is and the tragedy that has and keeps happening to her in Durban Deep. She has been raped multiple times by a gang of men who call themselves “The Suthu Gang” who have also threatened to kill her at gun point. The gang runs the illegal gold mining in this area. I asked her why she does not move and start a new life in a new place? She told me that she can’t move until she has hit her jackpot. So, the gold rush continues for her even though her life is in peril.

POWER, GENDER AND THE BODY
By Jamaican Dr. …, Institute Of Social Studies (Erasmus University) – 2000s, The Hague, The Netherlands.
Sitting on a sidewalk in Queens
With young girls all with chemically
Straightened hair
Talking about boys and periods of bloody encounters
Of Sex, or pregnancy, of just feeling bodies changing
And wondering
How to manage these transitions
I too talked of my encounters with the pain and confusion
And confidence to assert being man
And loving it
I will return I said and maybe even live
Here for a while and share some more
As you grow through your changes…
No Man! You can’t live here!
The panic and distress in the response
From the girl was unmistakable
Others nodded in unison
You can’t live here! She said again
Every day gun shot fire here and every day some body
Dead down here man!
We used to it but you not used to it
You can’t live here man!
Silenced i internalised the shocking realisation
That these girls take the deadly violence
Stalking their community as the norm
Of their reality
Their discursive identity
Is variously bound up with
The acid texture of its death knell
A young man once told me that because he knows
That a bullet is out there with his name on it
He would prefer To do it without a condom
And die from Aids
Because he was sure he would
Enjoy the sex more
What comment on cause and effect
Of violence and poverty
Could offer comfort in the face of such
Raw cynicism?
There’s always the possibility
That despite my epistemic partiality
Of the subjects of subordination
I too could have the dreadful experience
For one wrong word said
You soon could be dead
On the power-filled one way street
Where the gold-tooth don-gorgons meet
I claim the freedom to interrogate
The subjectivities
Embodied in gendered identities
In order to contribute to conscientisation
Of poor people subject to
Social structures of discrimination
Though social lack is a challenge to hope
The socially inscribed body
And cultural symbols
Provide strategies to cope
The youth have seen and they have heard
And have learnt it’s safer to say not a word
They know that American society
Gives social whiteness highest priority
While the African majority
Live in chronic scarcity
Life in a American inner-city
Is a story the cheapness of life
And the richness of beauty
Amidst cycles of strife
A power game of who
Will next bit the dust
If poverty is a crime
Then violence is a must
Which theoretical formulation
Can one fit such a configuration?
When should the experiential situation
Inform the conceptualisation?
The combination of constructs that
Constitute the problematic
Are structural, embodied and discursive
And therefore can’t be static
While methods promote
Conscientisation
To validate the agency
Of victims of social exclusion

The Bright Continent Portrait
I am in Africa, me, the white woman, taking pictures with my sophisticated camera. I am aware of what I am doing. I know the traditions, the icongraphies of power, of colonialism.
This introduction is not a self defense. F**k, I do not feel guilty when I am making pictures of Africans, I do not take away anything, I do not play a “role”.
When making portraits, I put a lot of energy. It is an intense dialogue, sometimes i feel overwhelmed. I give a lot, I open myself so that the people can react or answer.
To recover I go into nature, landscaping calms me down, reloads my batteries.
So in this sense portraits and landscapes become one in the process…

URBAN PATTERNS
Two different kind of patterns define this serial:
Leaves – still on the trees; or as
Shadows – on walls and the patterns of contemporary architecture.
“Nature” and “Culture” (architecture and landscape) unite on surfaces made of concrete and glass.

VISITORS OF THE EINTAGSMUSEUM – BELGRADE, SERBIA
This black-and-white series shows the making-of the exhibition of the Eintagsmuseum in Belgrade, Serbia during the 12th Museum Night in May 2015 themed “Eyes Open to the Night”. The images show the collaborators of the initiative and how the show was perceived by the visitors.
Under the title “EINTAGSMUSEUM REOPENS KLUB AKADEMIJA” we prepared a lecture room of the Faculty of Fine Arts as an exhibition space. Black wall fields as chalk boards were painted for a timeline of the Klub Akademija. A timeline of the history of the music-club was sketched. The visitors were invited to complete the timeline with their facts and stories.
The legendary Klub Akademija was located in the basement of the Faculty of Fine Arts in Belgrade and existed between 1961 and 2011. Especially in the 1980s and early 1990s – when the music club was managed by art students and had a very important impact on the Serbian subculture – the club played an important role for the the Serbian elites and the art- and music-scene.
Concept of the artistic Intervention: Johannes Hoffmann, Johanna Reiner, Vladimir Miladinovic + Isabel Termini.

VINEYARDS IN THE AUSTRIAN PROVINCE OF STYRIA
Atypical photographs of a popular Austrian landscape in very early spring. The weather was harsh during this exploration in Southern Styria, an Austrian region which is known for excellent wine.
The photographs are characterized by dramatic skylines. Emphasis is on the topography and the geometric shapes of the fields, meadows and vineyards.

WILD ‘BOUT NATURE: WINE AGRICULTURE IN VIENNA
This series explores the urban landscapes of Vienna: Some parts of the metropolis are still characterized by agriculture especially by vineyards, but also by vegetable growing.
In the last years the city marketing had put an emphasis on Vienna as a the biggest wine growing city. So somehow I am very much influenced by that. My aim is to show that urban farming is not an invention of the 20th century.

THE VISITORS – IV
The Visitors: An Associative Approach
The Visitors Series are about visitors in museums, galleries and other cultural institutions. I try to describe the dependency between the visitor and the space.
The Visitors Series are based on an associative approach. They depict the “others” and me, how I perceive others in an unfamiliar place and how I feel in a place that is just my usual working space.
