The ornament is one of the earliest abstract forms of artistic expression. I have generated a grid based on the paper size and the width oft the pen I used. Within this grid a pattern is drawn. The structure of the pattern is variable in color and multiplicative. This way a large number of individual patterns is created. They are framed and again arranged in the same form of pattern as 'mise en abyme'. The abstract space is ornamented. The grid on the paper repeats itself in the grid of the framed pictures.

born in Weimar, Germany lives and works in Berlin and Zurich ___ I explore the movement of drawing. By repeating lines, numbers and phrases the concrete form assumes an abstract shape. In my work I deconstruct the process of becoming art and the creative act itself. By repeating seemingly trivial basic elements (point, line) and using standard everyday materials, the process in its reduced, repetitive form itself becomes an artistic work. The systematic, constant drawing of lines – as such writing numbers and words is also drawing - becomes a contemplative act. The process itself thus becomes a question of what is art? How is art created? What distinguishes me as an artist? This mantra-like questioning in the drawing results in an irresistible mental focus. In some way I make sure of myself over and over again, as if every line was a continuous confirmation of my artistic activity. The drawing becomes an expression of my physical and mental engagement with the creation of a work of art. Physical and intellectual movement merge in every line. This process of repetition endows me with a sense of identity. Every next line within the previously defined system contains all previous lines and still remains individual. Each digit and each line can be seen as independent. At the same time, the accumulation of numbers forms a larger single number and the accumulation of lines form an area, and assume a distinct new shape. The repetition of the same creates a new entity and the nature of the form changes in the process of repetition.
