Be faithful unto death (first piece of this series) Drawing

"I wanted to break out of 'the grey' with my colours." Experiments with different materials, with the powerfully composed fragmented world of shapes and the strong juxtaposition of colours play a determinative role during the process of my creation. I use mixed techniques in order to find balance by merging them: oil, acrylic and watercolour, texture material or airbrush technique, canvas and wood and I sometimes cut and burn into the fibres. I often divide my paintings: one picture is a compound of two or more pieces. I may even sacrifice my figures occasionally by painting only parts of them to shape a unique composition. This fragmentation can be interpreted by the assistance of the viewer in order to finally put the work together into a whole. Experimenting with different materials, portraying colors in 3D, trying out different substances as surfaces are all parts of my geniune artistic view. The harsh compositions of my paintings are combined with sophisticated stories. Since my university years the research of the body of complex symbols and gestures have become my favourite means of expression and the featured motif of my individual faceless body images. In my paintings I am concerned with the themes of emotions and repressed desires expressed through body movements, with general human situations, relations and the illustrations of various roles just as well as the face as the carrier and projector of complex symbols, which is unique in all people and comprise never-recurring features.
