Elias Bötticher is a Zürich based photographer and director.

After working in Berlin and Basel for various commercial and documentary projects, he enrolled in the Zürich University of the Arts to pursue a Bachelor‘s degree in film focusing on camerawork and directing.

Growing up on the countryside as one of many siblings, Elias tried to carefully observe his surroundings from an early age on. His work engages with sociopolitical and ecological inevitabilities, seeking tenderness between nature‘s vastness and concrete shadows.
