Helmut Kand

Painter, Sculptor, Poet.
"My annual rhythm is that I am never longing to be somewhere else, as I am already there."

Kand is a highly sensual artist and painter of desire, longing and lust. One has the feeling that he not only sharpens the brush with his lips, but also tastes the colors with the tip of his tongue. Kand, the metamorphic passionate gardener, redeems an enchanted paradise from its rigidity.
In his pictures you can feel his Mediterranean joie de vivre, the rhythmic abracadabra in a bath for the eyes and soul.
