A sunny afternoon on Broadway Painting

For me art is a kind of science of the (sub)conscious that investigates reality and creates culture. Usually, I use a conceptual approach by becoming aware of my feelings, developing an idea and then work again intuitively. I am drawing/painting as well as taking photographs because I can get a deeper understanding of things which gives me calm and clarity. My topics involve the human body, culture, architecture, mass phenomena and social criticism. I am interested how we perceive life, what we allow to enter inside and what we show to the outside. I like to work with text as a subject or literally in a work of art. Architecture, its decay and the comparison with the human body is an important topic in my photography. When painting, I love the variety of oil colors and the spontaneity of watercolor. Recently I experimented with pastel, acryl markers and calligraphy brushes for expressive sketching. I work with digital and analog photography.
