Elisabeth Knecht<\/strong> studiert seit 2024 an der Hochschule Hannover \u201eDocumentary Photography and Visual Journalism\u201c. Sie entdeckte durch das Leben und Reisen im Ausland die Fotografie als Ausdrucksmittel und damit eine M\u00f6glichkeit in einen tieferen Austausch mit ihrer Umwelt und ihren Mitmenschen zu kommen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In ihren Projekten steht daher auch die Verbindung zwischen Menschen und zwischen Mensch und Natur immer wieder im Vordergrund. Der Fokus liegt dabei vor allem auf politischen und sozialen Themenfeldern sowie den pers\u00f6nlichen Geschichten einzelner ProtagonistInnen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aktuell besch\u00e4ftigt sie sich mit dem Zusammenspiel aus Text und Fotografie in einem k\u00fcnstlerischen Kontext und experimentiert wie andere Formen der Kunst in der Dokumentarfotografie Raum finden k\u00f6nnen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
