Educators Reportage
Carmen Oberst is a German artist, graphic designer and photographer.
She has lived in Hamburg since 1980 and works as an independent photographic artist, curator and teacher of design using photographic media.
Carmen Oberst originally worked as a graphic designer. Since 1997 she has been active in photography and experimental film, holding numerous exhibitions at home and abroad. Back in the 1980s, she developed her own visual language based on analog black and white photography and photoalchemical experiments. And in 1996 she founded PHOTO.KUNST.RAUM, a center for fine art photography and fine art known outside Hamburg.
Carmen Oberst turns the world into a stage: she routinely uses found events and randomly present people to create a fantastical production from the group of works "Rods of Imagination - On the Road" through the medium of photography.
