"Why do all your figures wear paper bags over their hads?"
In my work, I take a critical look at our current society and shed light on (interpersonal) relationships. This interpersonal level is not primarily created in the familiar dialog of facial expressions, but rather through the deliberate renunciation of it.
The figures in my works speak both to each other and to the viewer solely through their gestures and posture, thereby creating a deeper, more original and unadulterated level of communication. Especially in an era of oversubscribed self-portrayal, egocentric world views and the acceptance of alternative truths, this original and unadulterated level of communication plays the greatest role in my works.
The deliberate play with alienation, the masking of my figures, also leaves the viewer room for creativity, which is absolutely desirable in art, and invites him to develop his own new approaches and interpretations.
Copositorically, all my figures can be found in a changing abstract background environment in order to direct the focus to the essential, the human person, and to underline the body dynamics through color and form.
