Regarding the artwork:
Too often we settle in our relationships: we take on our role and no longer move in other directions.The paper white of the work stands for prototypes: seating as a proxy for the distribution of roles. Intertwined with light and shadow. In every relationship.
Biography:
Since early days I‘m involved in art and photography. Working as a graphic designer as well as a freelance artist provides a lot of freedom and oppurtunities to connect knowledge and creativity. So I’m often working along the border of both, for instance creating artist’s books with my paintings. I love paper with all its possibilities, using it often as my artistic ground for drawing, painting, mixed media, collages and printmaking work (especially woodcutting) as well as main material for folding, paper enginering and book work. But I also work with the fibers of bark or on wood.
I’m a member of the German Association of professional artists and awarded graphic designer. I focus on painting, printmaking and working with paper. Moreover I’m working as a book designer, paper engineer, editor and author. My main goal: interconnecting experiences and different fields, finding ways to express things with a new twist
