TIME for ART

Between fragment and meaning

Inconspicuous plant remains & found objects – newly seen, newly placed, newly told.

Postcard no.3
The red-headed woodpecker

This red-winged woodpecker is a previously undiscovered species. Here it finally has its coming out! Just like all the other character birds in this habitat made up of the smallest details. Unfortunately, further species identification is still open. Could that be a fuchsia wagtail on the far left? I look forward to any tips. Thanks in advance!

Insects from found objects
Insect collection without insects

This is a strictly unscientific collection of a special kind. It brings together things that don’t really belong together. The result is a biotope with scraps of paper, metal and glass on various plant remains. As I said: nothing of significance. Simply precise.

Insect collection without insects

A few square centimetres are home to a wide variety of species. A gathering of weird birds in pure culture. Peep!

[UN]Apparent worlds

At second glance, the small becomes big. In my collages, countless parts interlock – fragile, bizarre, alive.

I work with what is often overlooked: Found objects, fragments, everyday remnants. This results in stories about change, values and perception. Not loud – but clear.

About me

I am taking the time here and now to take a fresh look at things. You are cordially invited to join me on this hopeful search for new perspectives. And not in distant places of longing, but where we are walking and standing right now.

In my works you will find the most trivial remnants. I give the very last questionable crumbs a meaningful framework. For every fragment, no matter how banal, I claim an artistic value and indispensability in the overall composition.

Between broken porcelain and flower remnants, you will discover some surprising compositions and stories.
Not loud, but clear.
Caution: May contain traces of poetry.
