the intersection of various collage techniques, figurative elements and the connection between text and language have characterized my works in recent years. some images can be seen as a snapshot, frozen inherently in time, others deal with basic issues of human existence, such as contemplation, mindfulness, or transience.
the colour selection of the pictures is intentionally reduced, reserved and harmonious. viewers are invited to sink into their own thoughts and in the best case come to a rest, thereby escape our fast-paced and often rushed world for a few brief moments.
