About The Artwork
The work uses the lion as a metaphor for the person of a loved one who leads secret lives outside of an established relationship. The lover is bewildered by what s(he) does not know about the intimate other. Departing, s(he) simultaneously vows never to leave her/him. Physical distance is experienced as never putting in doubt physical and mental closeness. The work shows the lion (or lioness) as in hiding, stepping in and out of sight, searching “weit fort” (at a far distance) from the ‘I’ of the poem’s speaker. The text of the German poem associated with this work is at http://www.ottolaske.com/documents/German-Complete.pdf. The work is printed on Hot Press Fine Art Smooth Bright White paper (an acid free, 100% cotton rag media with a bright textured finish, yielding an extremely high color gamut and black density). It is signed and numbered by the artist, accompanied by a CoA, and shipped without hanging hardware, in a very sturdy tube protected against folding and puncture.

United States
I am an experimental artist working in digital painting, graphics, abstract photography, animation, and textile design. My work is abstract in the sense that I invent shapes, colors, and textures without reference to representational concerns. Working entirely digitally, I consider the boundaries between domains of visual art as entirely permeable. Since I work with a large variety of tools aided by a mastery of controlled random, the outcome of my composition and design processes are unpredictable; their results often straddle the line between established visual-art categories. The majority of my visual work is found on SaatchiArt where my musical compositions and German and English poetry are found at www.ottolaske.com. Outside of my artistic work, I am the founder and director of the Interdevelopmental Institute (IDM), a graduate-level teaching institute for those interested in adult-developmental thinking and research.
