About Bastian Peter
Bastian Peter, a talented artist based in Basel, Switzerland, is renowned for his dual craft as a "Larvenmacher" and a street photographer. Born in 1984, he specializes in art and street photography, where he navigates the delicate balance between documentary observation and staged scenes. His work boldly explores themes of identity, space, and perception, capturing candid moments on the streets while also creating concept series with deliberate setups that evoke deeper contemplation.
In addition to his photography, Bastian is the founder of the Swiss Street Photography Collective, dedicated to promoting this unique genre within Switzerland. He also operates the Larven Atelier Charivari, where he meticulously crafts and paints traditional Basler masks, or "Larven," integral to the renowned Basler Fasnacht, one of Europe's largest carnival celebrations. Bastian's artistry has garnered recognition through multiple exhibitions and awards, highlighting his commitment to revealing the layers of reality through both photography and traditional craftsmanship.
