Feuerqualle - stinging jellyfish Painting

My work oscillates between the arts and the sciences, the real and the imaginary, the contemporary and the ancient, the dark and the luminous, the abstract and the figurative, the monumental and the infinitesimal, the eternal and the ephemeral, the controlled and the spontaneous. Since my childhood near the North Sea, I've had a strong bond with nature. There I find diversity, wonder, inspiration, meditation, materials, respect and refuge. The resulting artistic creations (Les Radios de la méduse, Häckel & Lesueur, De Rerum Natura, Systema Naturae, Should I stay or should I go, Ciels & Moor, Beuys Band...) may just reflect the beauty of these observations/experiences, but also seek to incite a different attitude, to alert us to the fragility of living things, to symbolize the cyclical rebirth of life or the processes of evolution. Nothing ever really dies.
