About Nina Kirste

In her work, the artist Nina Kirste depicts situations that distinctly manifest her own perspective. Rather than the object itself, her subject is what she perceives within; the viewer is encouraged to discover the world through her eyes.

Born in 1990 in Mainburg, Bavaria, Kirste currently resides in Munich. Her analogue photographs are mostly taken while travelling and during extended stays abroad, helping to develop the characteristic aesthetic evident in her work. Encounters with the unknown provide the impetus for Nina’s quiet excerpt-like compositions.

"In my photographs you can find the contemplated, but also the incidental of our everyday lives. I am interested in simply letting things be, finding the beauty in the unexpected.“
