Night Chants - Drama Print

The title "Night Chants" is an adaptation of Friedrich Hölderlin's poem cycle. The modern experience of the search for meaning and alienation are iconographically and iconologically interwoven in an independent artistic language with motifs from art-historical and modern culture. The series "Night Chants" shows the intimacy of melancholy and loss, often on the border between reason and despair, in which even in times of Hölderlin the romantics saw themselves between a past ancient and a modern culture. The atmosphere of my pictures is partly dystopian, the characters are like monads in a lost world trying to understand what is going on around them. The works are in the format 40 x 30 cm, oil on wood. The colourfulness is muted, dark, with scattered bright colors that make the landscapes appear puzzling, destroyed or disturbed.
