Artistic concern

My aim is to capture traces of time in painting: the long-lasting beauty of old weathered 'spaces' - abstract and concrete.

 

In figurative art, it is about this timeless aesthetic and the peaceful atmosphere of the motifs. In abstraction, about the powerful energy during the act of painting.

Zooming in on the motif, the enlarged depiction of details, figuratively stands for a closer look in general. Life leaves marks and scratches, which I intentionally emphasize on the canvas. In empty 'lived spaces' in which man and time have left traces.

 

Working method

 

I feel an inner drive to paint and I've got the feeling: 'I have to do this'. In everyday life and while traveling, I see 'beauty' in incidental semi-weathered motifs. This personal perspective is meant to become visible on the canvas.

 

At first, the impressions are recorded with sketches, photos and color experiments. When it comes to the canvas, decades-old traces of weathering emerge layer by layer. The top paint is partly removed again. Here the lower layers are revealed and combined to form a global composition.

 

In each painting, I strive for a balance between complexity and simplicity: The ideal proportion between vibrant intensity in detail, and harmony of color & form in the overall expression.
