About my work

In my pictures I deal, amongst other things, with the polarity between nature and modern civilisation. Thereby I weave learnt graphic and artistic techniques with my intuition. During this creative process I try to symbolically work out general and personal themes. The main focus of my work is to be found in the interaction between human and other forms of existance.

Ideas and picture content originate in my phantasy and are normally created without model or paragon. Portraits occasionally make an exception. All motifs are copyrighted and sometimes notarial protected.

The materials that I use are with high quality pigmentation, light resistant and stable.
