"The main focus of my work has become storytelling...
honouring the lives + stories of women
through portraiture."

The Grandmothers::Inge

Me and my sister did a little search on pictures of my grandmother Inge. We only have limited pictures of her due to pre-digital camera times. She was always a role model for me, being a strong independent and loving woman and grandmother.

Not only was she the first female soccer referee in the DDR, she also served in a military hospital during WW2 and escaped to western Germany alone with 2 little kids. What an amazing accomplishment I will always remember her as a loving grandmother - I think you can also see all the love and joy on the very last picture (that also was the moment when I learned that my little sister was just born).
