Zu meiner künstlerischen Arbeit

*** Text auf Deutsch folgt ***

In my painting I nowadays like to work with aleatoric techniques, sometimes creating images in dual view (rotatable by 180 degrees). For some years now I mainly focus on political and social / societal topics. While I work more implicitly and symbolically in my paintings, my ink drawings are more explicit regarding the political / societal content.

The approach with aleatoric techniques is to initiate happenstances, which I then incorporate into the overall topic that I’m working on, and which I allow to lead me to new directions, new approaches, new ideas. So to speak: To cherish and accept the happenstance and uncontrollable and embrace, pass and forward it into a controllable and constructive way. So it stands for dealing with life itself and its events: First of all, the question of what I can influence and control – and what I cannot. I can set or initiate impulses more or less purposefully in a certain environment – but what ultimately emerges and how this impulse reacts with the environment is not always within my sphere of influence. Other coincidences and events also “come as they come”. What is again within my sphere of influence, however, is how I deal with it – what I make of it, and above all, how I evaluate it. So it is not only in painting that this is literally in my hands. Playing with that, in a sense accepting chance, (further) shaping it, thinking about these processes, has occupied me artistically time and again and this kind of work and approach offered me a certain peace of mind.

Another area of focus is minimalist quick drawing with ink in small format, especially in a cross-art context (particularly flamenco courses and events, as well as music events), the appeal of drawing in its reduction to the essential and the very special kind of encounter and contact with the person to be depicted when painting and drawing live on site. In 2018 alone, around 150 drawings in ink and acrylic in connection with accompanying flamenco events and courses were created (not including drawings of musicians at music events).

Since 2024, I no longer work with acrylic in my paintings, but exclusively with gouache instead. More information on the approach to sustainability and ecological responsibility in my artistic work will follow soon, as well as more background information on my main areas of work in the appropriate place.
