About

Hi, I am Janosch. (b. 1995)

I am a communication designer, dancer, visual artist and teacher.

I hold two master's degrees, in both of which I graduated with a thesis that centres on fiction and narratology. I am focusing on topics of body, geopolitics & myths. In my practice, I combine hard design skills such as coding, bookmaking, image manipulation, videomaking, and typography, with methodologies of theory and fiction such as writing, dramaturgy and research.
