Bird Art Collage

Untouched? Only almost

Material: Jasmine flowers, tiny rose buds, fluttering elm seeds, lilac
seed capsules, fern leaves, a chrysalis hand, lime seeds, fir seeds,
grasses and many other plant remains.
What could be nicer than gaining the trust of an animal and being allowed to feed it

. Thus, the object framing of the picture serves like a showcase as a sanctuary for the countless delicate bird creatures framed by reed grass.
Everything is only “almost” untouched:
Because I only change the collected plant parts very little. Instead,
just as I find them, their personalities develop almost by themselves at
.
I mainly determine the character and movement of the figures through their positioning in the picture.

Indicated line drawings such as arrows, grids and stamps are reminiscent of
markings and marginal notes in scientific works and drafts. Here they are part of the landscape design by human hands.
Nothing remains untouched. Or does it?

Caution is the mother of porcelain and nature

Hidden in the reeds, life is quiet and undisturbed. If you approach with enough patience and attentiveness, you can observe the wide variety of bird life.

  • April – find out what you really want

    Courage to find your own artistic voice – especially now April is rarely unambiguous – perhaps that’s why it’s the most honest month of the year. At least it doesn’t pretend to have everything under control. Between friendly, bright moments and rough, uncomfortable days, an interplay unfolds that is often closer to our own inner…
