When I was a child I was a fan of Fritz Lang's movie "Metropolis". I rediscovered it when the rock band Queen used parts of it for its video for "Radio Ga Ga." Sometimes I miss the old fashioned, slow world ... I miss utopias, because they all became so real. Anyway the model behind is very handsome Augusta Alexander, a muse one could say. But I wanted to deconstruct him, just like an essay. I wanted to show that even beautiful men, gay or heterosexual, have fragmented feelings, a divided soul, shift from happy to sad. Beauty and a joyful character alone do not mean we are never sad, especially gay people live with this "schizophrenia". Further I am a huge fan of the idea of cubism: during industrialisation cubism deconstructed our world as it seems to fall apart. The industrial age fragmented our society, produced a lot of pollution and made the nature men's servant. Life and work accelerated, the world became more steamy, dirty, hectic, stressfull. A lot of problems we have today are from that period and still unresolved. I think the digital revolution could mean the same, if we do not guide it into the right direction. There is a thin layer of epoxy resin on this work. IMPORTANT: None of my artwork is perfect, they are organic, there are drops of paint, tears in the paper, waves, glue residues. They are original!
