ABOUT THE ARTWORK
The idea to the "Force of Gravity" and the "Swept" paintings from the category "Reminiscences & Portraits" came as a reaction and as a somewhat tongue-in-cheek comment to the extremely pastose paintings, often weighing many kilograms, some fellow-painters produce. I imagined how the base could no longer hold the color and how it all slips downwards ("Force of Gravity" paintings) or how I "cleaned up" the painting "sweeping" the masses of color to the margin ("Swept" paintings). And again I am dealing with what - to me - is essential and genuine about painting: literally with the "handling" of color.

"For all its diversity, the program of my painting is a very personal one. Whether it is the sensual materiality of color or a photorealistic representation of my studio, the themes feed from the artistic search for the possibilities of the medium of painting and the motifs come from my life and work environment. My work revolves around the process of painting itself, the materials, the techniques and the meditative time spent alone with the painting. I paint my work material or the exhibition spaces, I explore the various possibilities of overlaying paint, recycle paint residues or work playfully with the simplest painterly gesture, the brush stroke itself. Each work begins with the pictorial idea. It dictates the painterly form of expression and there is in this sense no external theme and no overriding idea that must be met. The image idea and the energetic effect of its execution are the subject.“
