Johanna Berghorn is a young photographer based in Berlin, where she accomplished her bachelor's degree in photography in 2019.
While working as a photographer and artist, she also studies psychology in order to deepen the psychological skills of her photographic work and to use it for her artistic approach.
Her work ranges from fine-art and documentary, to political activism and multi-media artworks, that revolve around contemporary topics and culturally charged narratives, while always remaining closely linked to her visual perception. In her personal work, she has expanded her focus on depictions of people of all ages, genders, colors or sizes and how they internalize the external pressure of social roles.

Her work as a photographer is published in major publications such as The Independent Photographer, Photo Vogue and Portrait Of Humanity, published by the British Journal of Photography and Magnum.

"One of my fascinations with human nature is how we, as people, process our experiences; internalizing them and then reflect them back out to the world, often symbolically and unintentionally. I'm interested in what transpires during the internalization phase, our subjectivity towards self perceptions and what we fixate on."
