»Let’s return to a face. A face covered in dots. This act prohibits entry but yet draws attention to the psychology of looks. Expression is a strategy. If you are consciously turning an expression then you are peering over something. You are looking above and beyond an imaginary horizon that ties how you perceive your face to carry meaning, with your assumptions about the reaction of the person that meets your gaze, analyses your features and speaks an inner monologue in response to your profile.« Daniel C.

Katja Stuke works as a photographer on her own independend photographic projects. And together with Oliver Sieber – under the label BöhmKobayashi – they cover an extensive range of personas: photographers and artists, curators and exhibition organizers (ANT!FOTO), designers, art book editors and publishers. Regardless, in their works and activities as artists and art facilitators they have long since become moderators of a very specific photographic culture. During the last years she exhibited i.a. at Kunsthalle Bremen, Museum für Photographie Braunschweig, Museum for Contemporary Photography, Chicago, Museum Folkwang Essen, Museum Morsbroich, Leverkusen, Kunstmuseum Bonn, Temple Paris and Florence Loewy, Paris.
