Auf den ersten Blick von unverrückbare Ruhe, beherbergen meine Bilder zugleich eine Ambivalenz, etwas Geheimnisvolles, manchmal sogar Unheimliches. Entscheidend ist immer auch die Frage nach den Möglichkeiten der figurativen Darstellung und deren Durchbrechung.
Öl auf Leinwand, 2024.
Die Arbeit wird aufgespannt auf einem Keilrahmen versendet – inklusive Echtheitszertifikat und Signatur auf der Rückseite.
