Harald Popp was born in Illertissen in 1974. He studied photography at the Hamburg University of Applied Sciences under Prof. Ute Mahler. After several years as an applied photographer, he focused on his artistic practice. He lives and works in Hamburg. In his photographs, he explores the relationship between digital images and their impact on our everyday perception of reality. His latest works increasingly deal with the possible complete replacement of photographic processes by language-based AI image generators.
His works have been shown at the Kunsthaus Hamburg, Westfälischer Kunstverein Münster, Harburger Kunstverein, KUB Arena Kunsthaus Bregenz, and Hamburger Kunstverein, among others.
