In the Gruyère region of Switzerland, the landscape quietly shifts.
An artificial intervention temporarily alters the scenery, creating a space where movement and stillness coexist.
This short film explores the atmosphere of that transformation — a place suspended between what is and what briefly becomes. It offers a moment to slow down and observe how landscape and time shape perception.
This project, part of my ongoing videography work, reflects my continued search for forms that resonate emotionally through natural light, composition, and sound.

A quiet, observational short film created during the 2025 edition of Basel Fasnacht.
Shot handheld and edited without narration or music, the work relies entirely on ambient sound and subtle visual rhythm to convey the atmosphere of the event. It presents the experience as it unfolded, through the perspective of a passive observer.
This project is part of an ongoing exploration in videography focused on cultural documentation through distance, silence, and presence.
This short video reflects on how clarity sometimes comes not from progress but from distance — the kind that reveals what was once invisible, hidden by proximity.
To express this idea, I chose to work with a single continuous shot: a quiet drone pull-out paired with a slow digital zoom-out. This simple combination creates a layered movement — one physical, one optical — both pulling away just enough to allow a different kind of vision to emerge.
This minimal approach is part of my way of seeing videography: not as a collection of edits or scenes but as a medium for presence, tension, and subtle transformation.
With this piece, I continue exploring videography as a form of visual thinking — where motion, light, and pacing can carry meaning on their own.
Three photographs connected to this video are also available as prints on Saatchi Art.

The Rhine Falls (Rheinfall), located in northern Switzerland, are the largest waterfall in Europe. This video captures their immense power and the surrounding landscape through a combination of aerial and ground footage.
The editing follows the rhythm of the water’s movement, creating a dynamic visual flow that enhances the natural force of the falls. The immersive sound design blends the roar of the cascading water with carefully selected music to amplify the impact of each scene.
Before filming this, I thought Dreispitz was just another industrial area. But as I explored it, I realized there was much more to it.
This video is my first fully edited project, an important step in my journey into videography. It captures what I saw, felt, and experienced while discovering this place for the first time.
