Why I do what I do – and why this blog exists
This is the first entry in my blog. It’s directed at people who are interested in the deeper layers of our social reality – in trauma, collective unconscious, repressed history – and in the question of how this manifests concretely in everyday life, in communication, in design. The topics I discuss here pick up on many of my posts on LinkedIn – but here there’s more space for context, depth, and personal background.
In this first post, I’d like to briefly tell how my work came about – and what I’m aiming for in the future.
I originally come from photography and web design. But over many years, biographical breaks, therapeutic processes, and social observations have become increasingly intertwined. What used to exist side by side – personal survival, artistic work, thinking about society – has today grown together into something new: a conscious, trauma-sensitive form of design.
I work with people and organizations that deal with healing, transformation, or social wounds. And I try not only to deliver function in my work, but to create resonance spaces. Places where something is allowed to show itself – and where the unspoken is also considered.
This blog will pursue three lines in the future:
- personal reflection (not in the sense of self-revelation, but as part of a larger pattern),
- social analysis from a trauma-sensitive perspective,
- and insights into my design work – including questions around ethics, impact, and visibility in digital space.
I also see this blog as part of my positioning: My work is not “neutral.” It is conscious – with attitude, with context, with history. And that’s precisely where its power lies.
