A Portrait on the Search for Happiness
Documentation, 2021
A huge desert, behind it a deep, cold sea. A field of debris, torn open like a field. Beneath it, deep under the earth: the purest diamonds in the world. A group of young men begins to dig for the tiny stones with their bare hands. Day and night. A new diamond rush in South Africa. A poetic journey through the desert, the sand and the wind.

Shooting Crows
Designed for: Christine Hürzeler
A park in the fog. Crows flap and caw in the sky. A homeless man sleeps between the trees. A woman disappears. Now and then a crow is shot: as a deterrent. The crows rally after every shot. The police gather evidence. Reality and imagination become blurred. Fine cracks pervade everyday perceptions. Gradually we begin to suspect a new and unsettling reality behind the tangible world.
