Over the years, a few main topics have emerged that have been picking up repeatedly and dealing with various use of media and material, sometimes more, sometimes less seriously:

 

Current works like Formfunktionen try to examine all of our relationships with all that surrounds us and the permanent stress that comes with categories and power structures. Focused especially on the life and nature of not human-like beings like animals (Funktionstiere) and plants (Multiplikationen) and how we present ourselves in different roles. 

Reverse is all about plastic - in many respects. Cultural and ideal cannibalizations are at the threshold of perception when at the same time we haven't even processes all of the pasts yet. Fascinated by the essence of storytelling, both in real lives and also on screens, captivation by the allure of (American) trash, all cultural dots and spots around is quite obvious. 

Older works like Visceral refer to the inner organs - what are the functioning components of a human being, physically? 

Am Orodio broaches the issues that are immanent to the art process itself that one has to deal with every day. 

The works of Postanalytic Humming Synthesis try to reassemble free connotations without the approach of a profound concept - as the name suggests.

The photographs of To Whom It May Concern / Et Cetera serve as visual studies of these themes and approaches.  

 

~ Work in progress and also: Better together ~

 

A picture is never ready, say some. Maybe they refer to Cezanne's paintings, where there is left out spaces, like Gardanne (1885-1886). That's not dramatic, either in a positive or negative way. It’s an approach that resonates with me, without despair. 

Working in isolation is not heart opening. Even if connected to kindred spirits. I like to explore and share new ideas, perspectives, and ways of processing together with others. That's why I am dedicated to art education and my projects: its-like.com.
