Versatile composer, singer-song writer, visual artist and co-founder of DOGSTAR2 artistic duo.
Born in South-Tyrol in 1985, his works embody all the characteristics of his homeland: eclecticism, ambiguity, collision, mystery, nature. Joachim debuts as a painter and sculptor, later embracing also video art, performance and sound, in the pursuit of the dissolution of all kind of boundaries within creative thinking and expression. In 2018 his artistic research moves his career more and more towards music: he begins composing numerous sound tracks for films, releases a vast amount of singles, soundscapes and albums, and even joins colleague June Niesein to perform the NO PAIN TOUR (Alien Chord Records) between Italy and Austria, under the name of his dark electro pop alter-ego Fortune Cookie. Since then, as an extremely prolific composer, it’s hard to keep track of all his releases and sound tracks: in 2020 he composes and performs SUPERNOVA - ELECTRO LIVE CINEMA, a mash-up stage show combining experimental electronic music and found footage videos, winner of Vorbrenner 2020 (AT); in the same year he is as well composer of the audio documentary series LE METAMORFOSI, a project awarded by WS CALL 2020 (IT).
His artistic interest centres around love, death, spiritual energies and all the mysteries beyond our human horizon.
