across the fields

drawings & paintings

Drawing and painting are ​some of the oldest art ​forms of our species. I ​always felt drawn to ​beautiful, intricately ​executed paintings, ​especially figurative ​paintings. In my practice I ​focus on the female face ​and body, trying to portray ​the essence of female ​existence.

Installation

Mannequins represent the uncanny valley like nothing else. for an installation dealing with the topics of sexual violence I played with their allocation somewhere between life and death to create an eerie yet mesmerizing art work (2021).

VIDEO ART

PHOTOGRAPHY

for half of my ​life my cell phone ​is my constant ​companion. I take ​pictures and ​videos of ​anything that ​strikes me as ​interesting or ​aesthetically ​pleasing. As of ​today my camera ​roll counts ​63'944 picturers ​and 2'694 videos.

AI ART

Ever since midjourney was launched I HAVE A DEEP FASCINATION FOR this program and how it can create images based on a few words. I like using the program in an experimental, inspirational field bordering the uncanny that inhibits AI.

Epoxy resin

Epoxy resin is the latest medium I discovered for my artistic expression. It is like no other material: once hardened it keeps anything inside its see-through body, stopping the natural course of decay and aging.

experimental film about the Luftschutzkeller in the house in which I grew up,touching topics of generations of war, inherited trauma, autobiographical aspects with my family and a gory tableau vivant of the last two survivors table tennis tournament in the underground.

A playground for rehearsing their respective skills, young actors and directors can hone their skills without the pressure to perform without any flaws.
