The work of Sebastian Bühler is situated within the field of artistic photography. At its core lies the act of making traces of change visible—places in transition whose fragile and often overlooked beauty he captures with great sensitivity. He is interested in how real landscapes or situations can be transformed into something abstract, creating images that move beyond representation and raise questions about perception, transformation, and impermanence.
Sebastian Bühler lives and works in Augsburg. Growing up in the 1990s, he was shaped early on by hip-hop culture, whose creative energy led him to photography in the early 2000s. He studied photography at the University of Applied Sciences in Munich. His works have been exhibited in Belfast, Siena, Trieste, Munich, and Berlin.
