c'est moi
JAQUI DRESEN
With a background in the world of theater, a Bachelor of Arts in Communication and a Master of Arts in Culture, Aesthetic and Media,
I work as a multi-disciplinary media artist. I combine the creation and production of (moving) images and scenarios.
I live and work in Berlin, but deep down in my heart I'm Kölsch and grew up in good old NRW.
Acting, Photography and Direction are my main tools to tell stories and
to create organic art.
I am convinced that our society needs more diverse and most of all specific stories about living together in a globalized world.
One part of my work is about creating content around stories and people that are not seen or underrepresented. I want to use my female gaze and my privilege to give platform.
Sharing my thoughts, doubts and love stories with the WWW always helped me to reflect myself. Self-portraits und creating digital diaries are part of my daily life and help me with my mental health to process things that happened in life.
In addition to this, I create content for international brands. Even though I often take a critical view of this commercial sector, I am still part of it and this experience made it possible to emancipate myself, to be independent and to pay the rent myself in this patriarchal industry, dominated by men.
To be honest: we need more space for chaos!
