Mascha Sonnenberg Interview
What inspires your work?
Most ideas and inspiration come from everyday situations and reinterpreting or reliving them through a work. At the same time I like to work on functional projects I can bring into my daily life.
How would you describe your work process?
Most times I have a concept or medium in mind I want to explore and experiment with and then find a project or topic to connect with that technique.
What is your favorite tool or material to work with?
I enjoy being behind a camera, digital and analog exploring light, color and formats.
When it comes to painting or drawing on the other hand I like to work on small canvases with familiar tools like the smallest most used brush I use for the same few colors.
What do you enjoy most about your work?
Getting lost in the process and losing sense of time without having pressure too need a finished piece.
Are there mediums you feel drawn to?
I want to get deeper into sound based projects and produce my own mixtape or album in the future. Along or combined to that I want to work on another short movie to expand my videographic skillset.
What feels most like reality to you, a dream, a memory, or an image?
An image if I took it myself and can connect it to a vivid memory. Even though dreams often feel real after waking up I automatically remind myself that they are not and forget them too fast to let them feel like reality.
