Da ich vor kurzem umgezogen bin und meine Bilder noch in meinem "alten" Atelier lagern, kann der Versand bis zu 30 Tage in Anspruch nehmen.
Das Werk „DAY DREAMING“ bildet das Pendant zu „NIGHT THINKING“. Beide Werke thematisieren den Kontrast zwischen den Gedanken am Tag und in der Nacht. Tagsüber werden Gedanken oft durch den Alltag verdrängt oder beschönigt, während man nachts diesen Gedanken wehrloser gegenübersteht und sich ihnen stellen muss. Das Sonnenlicht des Tages wird durch goldene Applikationen repräsentiert, während die silbernen Elemente die nächtlichen Mondstrahlen symbolisieren.

The artwork "DAY DREAMING" serves as a counterpart to "NIGHT THINKING." Both pieces explore the contrast between thoughts during the day and at night. During the day, thoughts are often suppressed or glossed over by daily routines, while at night, one is more defenseless against these thoughts and must confront them. The daylight is represented by golden applications, while the silver elements symbolize the nocturnal moonlight.
The shipment will be made within 30 days.

My aim has always been to portray people as individuals. For many years, I painted portraits, believing that people’s faces best reflect their identities. When, whilst studying art at the University of Wuppertal, I came into contact with dementia within my personal circle and attempted to depict the process of forgetting, I reached my limits. A person’s outward appearance could not reflect their inner processes. In search of a solution to my problem, I gradually moved away from depicting faces, until I eventually omitted them entirely. Since then, my works have played with the identities and realities of the people depicted. Through a blend of figurative, realistic and abstract elements, I allow the viewer to look behind the façade of faces, into the feelings and thoughts of the figures portrayed.
My in-depth exploration of this subject matter – including in my Bachelor’s thesis in painting – continues to shape my painting style to this day and inspires me to constantly reinterpret a wide variety of themes relating to the human condition. I prefer to work in series, in which I explore individual themes in depth and interpret them in various ways.
