At the beginning of the year I got the order to create a Frida Kahlo picture.

I first painted over the original black+white image and then abstracted, retouched and colored it. It was important to me to set the first color nuances and to let the picture appear in colors, which then also shaped the entire picture composition. A kind of wall/graffiti structure forms the contrast to the figure in the foreground. Here I worked out delicate lines and subtle, warm color areas and then added scratches and graffiti. Another idea came with the floral decoration in the hair. It gives the picture something slightly surreal and is intended to symbolize the delicate, fragile, the beautiful ephemeral with a certain ease, joie de vivre. Fragments of butterflies, dew drops and flower blossoms complete the overall picture.

Thank you Sabrina!

The artwork is based on the idea to look through a window and the surroundings are reflected in the window, resulting in overlaps and a "dreamlike" picture of reality from the real environment. In my picture I tried to combine old (from historical postcards) and new pictures of the main square, different perspectives, into a larger whole.

You can see fragments of house facades, especially of the famous baroque Luegg House, which appears twice in the picture, but also the main square ensemble, as well as an insight into Sporgasse, the Archduke Johann fountain, and a part, namely the clock and the substructure, of the clock tower. Furthermore, the Archduke can be seen in the picture on the right, which forms an axis of vision to the center, where the word "rent" is located. I tried to contrast the whole composition with my fragmentary graffiti and street art styles. There are also macro shots of posters, for example in the upper right, which are intended to create an abstract landscape structure. Wall fragments, tags, fragmentary signs (in the middle a kind of "drop heart") should move the eye to wander in order to find new, small details again and again.

The color composition is bright, joyful, life-affirming and the green of GRAWE appears.

Thanks to Stefan Höhn & the Team!

Interview

In the last few days a film team from Graz visited me to do an interview about my work. I can't wait to see the result. Many thanks to Andrea, Kathi and Heli!
One of the interview questions was: „What drives you?“
I guess I said: „l want to connect opposites and master challenges. Ultimately, my new interpretations of art historical works are about a successful composition of the individual elements within a given framework. If a picture is successful I am burning to make a new one. I can't do as much as I want to. But that's ok. I think I have found my life theme with this series of works and am now trying to pursue it.“
