Lukas Gold has been fascinated by the medium of photography from an early age. His photography focuses on documentation and visual testimony and adopts a diary narrative approach. The central theme of his photographic work is portraiture in a wider sense – of a person, location or region. His work documents a continuous search for identity or what identity could mean for us or for the other.

Lukas Gold assigns great importance to detail in an attempt to understand and identify the global discourse of the subject. His work can be seen as a personal response to a world that is flooded with images, often removed from their situative context by a media-driven world, in which notions of truth and reality are subordinated to the impact of headline consumerism.

Lukas Gold is currently working in Berlin.
