“View. Empathise. Trigger.“

Ina Künne

This exhibition recalls the exhibitions of last year’s festival in photographic scenes by German photographer Ina Künne.

Ina Künne. After the end of a dance career that won her three world championship titles, she discovered photography and photojournalism for herself at the end of the 1990s. In addition to her publishing work at DOCMA magazine, which she has co-edited since 2002, Ina focussed on editorial portrait photography from 2010 onwards.
Her photographs are characterised above all by her ability to capture deep emotions and intimacy. She has a keen awareness of human feelings, which she captures through subtle details and nuanced expressions, revealing the underlying stories and emotions. 
Skilled by her observations from two decades in the world of dance, her careful compositions and eye for light and shadow ensure that she captures the mood and atmosphere of the moment.
