Constanze Flamme is an independent documentary photographer based in Berlin and feels home on the road and in motion. Interested in the poetic friction of subliminal undertones she uses an essayistic approach to encircle topics on socio-economical, environmental and cultural aspects of society. Her work explores the space between the factual and the metaphorical, the mundane and the political and meanders between documentary framework and pictorial condensation. She studied Visual Communication at FH Potsdam and Photography at the Gerrit Rietveld Academie in Amsterdam and received grants by the Akademie der Künste, Berlin and VG Bildkunst, Bonn.
