About The Artwork

I often ask myself: Are we still living in Plato's Cave? Nature and ultimately all reality can only be experienced through empirical knowledge. In order to open up the metaphysical hidden from nature in the foreground of reality, I try to express what I see behind things by abstracting the representational. In Kant's sense, that is supersensible, which lies above our sensory experience. That is, I want to get from the object that which I can sensually grasp to abstraction that goes beyond my senses; creating images that cannot be grasped by the mind and yet are familiar on a deeper level. Creating visual spaces into which the observer can immerse themselves and find resonance with their own deep-seated worlds. Through the subjectively shaped involvement of the observer, a universal understanding of the world can arise. When he looks at the painting and the boundary of contemplation disappears, when the subject coincides with the object, the observer's idea of and about himself and thus the separation of the individual from the whole can be abolished.

The Inside of the Line Nature and ultimately all reality can only be experienced through experience. In order to open up the metaphysical hidden from nature in the foreground of reality, I try to express what I see behind things by abstracting the representational. In Kant's sense, that is supersensible, which lies above our sensory experience.

Create visual spaces into which the viewer can immerse and resonate with their own deep-seated worlds. An universal understanding of the world can arise through the subjectively shaped letting in of the viewer. When he looks at the picture and the limit of viewing disappears, when the subject coincides with the object, the viewer's idea of and about himself and thus the separation of the individual from the whole can be dissolved.
