Cello 1.
Ich spiele kein Cello. Ich spiele damit. Das ist eine der wichtigsten Dinge, die ich im Kunststudium gelernt habe und die ich mit meiner Arbeit weitererzähle. Es ist ok, mit den Dingen zu spielen.

Drew Mazyck
Drew Mazyck is a visual artist and art teacher in Freiburg im Breisgau. He studied at Goethe University Frankfurt am Main under Kerstin Gottschalk.
In his artistic practice, he primarily explores the fragmentary and elusive nature of human experience. This is reflected in his abstract forms and his rejection of anything that is clearly comprehensible. For him, a work should always retain an element of the intangible. Especially in those moments when we are closest to it.
This ethos in his artistic practice is significantly shaped by Drew Mazyck’s personal history. Firstly, through growing up in a neighbourhood of Frankfurt am Main with a strong migrant community and through his own history of migration. As a result, he repeatedly experienced from an early age that one’s own identity has an inherently fragmentary and elusive quality. A piece of home that is always somewhere quite different from where one is oneself.
During his Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Sociology, he explored precisely this fragmentary nature from a socio-psychological and philosophical perspective. His key influences here were initially post-structuralism and, later, the psychoanalysis of Jacques Lacan and his philosophical successors.
Ultimately, for him, art is the logical continuation of philosophy. For it is where thinking about and describing human experience reaches its limits that the artistic exploration begins.
