About

Nico Knoll is a 27-year-old photographer based in Berlin and Munich.

He is currently in his final semesters at the photography university "Ostkreuzschule für Fotografie" in Berlin.

In his photographic projects, he focuses on creatures and their living conditions that receive little attention in today's world. Knoll draws attention to injustices.

His interest in animal rights and climate protection led him to his long-term projects on bullfighting in France and Spain, zoos in Europe and, most recently, his commitment to Lützerath and the climate justice movement
