  In January 2022 I was confirmed as the new graphic designer for The Altitude Agency here in Berlin. A thriving fast paced marketing company who successfully helps companies grow. Through a structured process and mix of growth-related measures from the areas of performance marketing, creative conception and design, web development, influencer marketing and strategy development.

These ‘still’ images achieve their animated visual effects through the dynamic aspect of the line. And as using a scalpel – without guideline – leaves no room for error, every work is a one-take, free form improvisation – a snapshot of the artist’s immediate psyche. ​What’s fascinating about Daniel’s process is in the removal of a medium as opposed to the more traditional application of one. That’s to say, perhaps the image was always within the canvas – the artist merely uncovered it.” PETER LEWIS Chief Curator of Sharjah Biennale, and Independent Curator at Kunstverein, Bregenz.

  Having a passion for music and being surrounded by DJ's and producers (and not being a DJ myself), I decided to take it upon myself to get involved in the events, festival production, music videos.
