Cornelius Dämmrich

Overview
Born in 1989 behind the Berlin Wall, what makes me kind of a real-life wildling. Years after the fall of the Soviet Union, my mother and I moved to West Germany where I grew up and went to school. Today I live in Cologne and work as a freelance 3D Artist. I create 3D environments with a combination of various 3D programs. Since I'm not a character modeler, you will sparsely find any humans or animals (with a few exceptions) in my work. All you will find are signs of life: Remainings of activities, scratches or marks of somewhat dealing with its surroundings. Sometimes I try to change this, sometimes I don't. I love movies and watch a lot of them. I also admire several composers and musicians like Trent Reznor and Clint Mansell. Movie soundtracks have a huge influence on me and often take part in the process of creating images and artworks. Earned a Bachelor of Arts in Media Design at the MHMK College in Cologne. For my work I've received several awards—such as the CGChoice Award—and have been published in several books and magazines.
