Photography.

For medianautik, photography is more than representation – it is design and communication. The work of Michael von der Forst focuses on two main areas: thoughtfully composed images of objects and spaces, and atmospheric visual worlds centered on people. The gallery offers insight into both realms – precise, authentic, and with a strong design sensibility.

Products & Spaces
Making design visible: Whether furniture, textiles, architecture, or exhibition stands – medianautik showcases products and spaces with a keen sense of visual staging. The visual language is clear, minimal, and conscious of materials. Light, perspective, and composition are carefully coordinated to make the quality of the object visually tangible.

People & Moments
Beyond traditional portraits, these are artistic visual worlds that center on personality and expression. The photographs capture people in genuine, often intuitively observed moments – minimal, sensitive, sometimes staged, sometimes candid. It’s about atmosphere, visual poetry, and the search for essence. The camera becomes a silent narrator – words become unnecessary.
