ABOUT THE ARTWORK

The work is painted on real banknotes. This can be understood as a demonetization of the value of money. It shows a monkey counting banknotes. Sometimes human-beings act like animals with their greed for more money and value. The work is a critizism of the state of society of today, which is ruled by money. I am an artist who is working critical on society and our moden human world. So the critic on capitalism is essential, because many people have to usffer under the neoliberal agenda. This work was created as part of my series "artcycling", where I paint art on things. just like recycling or upcycling, I use old objects and give them a new meaning and turn them into art.

My images are my flashlight. We are currently overwhelmed a million times with images, that mainly have trivial meanings, like: buy me! or vote for me! I create a visual antipole. Human history is a conglomerate of reappearance of events. There were many approaches to erupt out of this periodicity. I have worked in the streets for many years and painted my stencils both signed and unsigned. It is important for me to create art for the sake of art. Far away from the pressure to earn money or to appeal to an audience. I concentrate on the raw establishment of images that remain true to my beliefs because they grow out of my soul. Within them I can broach my thoughts, feelings and fears. They are my therapy to handle the bizarre reality of how human beings live together. I often wander through the darkness of existence. With my art, I can hold a candle to find the way that appears right to me. That’s why I depict people, that interact with each other or paint figures, that do represent a certain way of thinking. These paths are fundamental to my work and I enlarge them with my own viewpoints. I establish small niches in public and private spaces. Niches to pause for a moment. Simply lacunas.
