Thomas Guggenberger explores how perception and space are shaped through light, movement, and interaction. His artistic practice spans lighting design, film, and time-based media, creating works that merge sensory experience with spatial investigation. Through a combination of technical precision and poetic minimalism, he examines how everyday environments transform when light becomes both medium and subject. Guggenberger holds a Master of Arts in Time-Based Media and lives and works in Berlin.
