Space and effect

The work changes in the room.

Size, distance and light determine how the picture is perceived – not as an isolated object, but as part of a situation. The photograph shown here conveys this relationship and gives an impression of how the work appears in dialog with its surroundings.

Further views then allow a closer look at the structure, details and composition.

Change of perspective

One of my most important sources of inspiration is trying to look at the world as if I were seeing it for the first time. I go outside my front door and try to consciously set aside any judgment or learned knowledge about my surroundings.

This state is almost impossible to maintain – and this is precisely where its value lies. Even the brief moment of not knowing opens up new perspectives and creates space for other forms of seeing. This experiment gives rise to works such as (K)EINE Insektensammlung.

Get me out of here! – Collage with bird motifs made from found objects and plant remains.
An idiosyncratic habitat in which a bright red starling dominates the scene.

 

Effect and scale

The collage I am a star! unfolds its presence through a close look. The works are small-format, deliberately restrained and demand proximity. Structure, material and subtle nuances only become visible when approaching.

The framing creates a self-contained pictorial space that can be read as an independent habitat. Organic finds and everyday fragments meet as equal elements. The surprising combinations create a field of tension in which nature, everyday fragments and art coexist.

Each work is framed dust-tight (anti-reflective museum glass) and comes with a signed certificate of authenticity.

Collage detail. Barberry fruits and insect wings have become birds

I’m a star! shows a small artist’s scene in which a bright red starling dominates the action. Originally an ornamental grass, this figure has found its place in a densely packed refuge. Between fine palm branches, it shares the space with a poppy booby and a barbary sparrow.

Bumblebee winged tits and lime blossoms complete the ensemble and contribute to the calm, almost natural harmony of the scene. The names are not binding. They arise from the eye and remain just as changeable as the figures themselves. A small decorative feather at the edge sets a casual accent and eludes clear assignment.

The work plays with transformations and attributions. Nothing is quite what it seems, and yet everything remains clearly recognizable as an individual piece. The star asserts its presence without displacing the other figures. The result is a self-contained habitat of tiny fragments in which every form makes its appearance – open, humorous and without a final destination.
