| Introduction | At the age of fourteen, I began to photograph and to appreciate the magical moments in the dark room. With a thesis photographed in Florence, I graduated in photo-journalism at the University of Bielefeld in Germany. I moved to Italy in 1986 and have lived a period of travels. In 1990, after a trip to Egypt, something changed. For the first time I felt the need to combine two photographs. I noticed that my gaze was already combining them in my mind. The first photomontage was born and then the volume “From South to North - Sabine Korth” edited by Roberta Valtorta. For many years I taught photography in Florence and hold workshops on collage. Then I connected with therapeutical photocollage, thanks to Judy Weiser in Canada. Recently I focus mainly on my studio practice in a small town on the Mediterranean coast at Piombino. |
