About
Imprint
©2026 Czampiel
In long-term projects I explore how people relate to places and each other. Whether in the streets of Berlin, along the Wupper or on a hiking across Germany.
Rooted in product and strategic design, my practice is guided by an attention to the human experience and a holistic understanding of complex contexts.
In Berlin I am part of the AFF Galerie eV as well as the Fotografie Berlin Collective.
