Daniel studied painting at the Universität für Angewandte Kunst in Vienna. In the post-reunification period in Berlin during the 90ties he gained recognition for his "Ginelli Dump Art" assemblages, artworks that he sold on the street and later showed in numerous exhibitions. He worked as a dj, ran a pop-up discotheque, participated in theatre projects and organized weekly talent and dinner shows. He explored the world as a location scout and later as a visual research artist for film productions and commercials. He is the founder of “Kaltstadt”, a fictional city that is constantly growing.
Daniel lives in Berlin.
