Phillip Zach was born in Cottbus. From 2007 to 2009 he studied at the University of Fine Arts in Hamburg, from 2009 to 2012 at the Städelschule in Frankfurt. From 2014 to 2019 he lived in Los Angeles. Hunger for Sand is the working title of Phillip Zach's current project. In 2020, he will travel to various places where he will be documenting the mining of sand and other phenomena that occur in the course of globalization. His journey will take him to Brandenburg, India, China, Hawaii, and the Bay Area, where he will meet with people who all deal with these conflicts in their own ways.

During his fellowship he will edit the video material produced until then and expand the topic medially.
