curriculum vitae by nora dorgathen
My main interests are photography and illustration.
I love to observe my daily enviroment thats why i take my camera and sketchbook where ever i go. I try to absorb everything that surrounds me: political discussions, problems of our society, up to date news, daily situations. I want to tell stories with my work.
In fashion photography the main aspect is to capture the garments. But i also want to pass on a feeling, an atmosphere, a plot.
I also started my own jewelry brand ‚crocos and chains‘ with bracelets, chains and earrings. I transformed sketches into acrylic objects. I think it is really intersting to consider an illustration as a three dimensional object.
