Apart

The apart paintings are unspectacular places in the nature between flowers, fruits, weeds...

There, where the human being never quite becomes in control of the situation. Therefore, the painterly mood is also fleeting and undecided. However, a calming for our eye should occur, a kind of relief actually.

District

The district paintings are about places in my local area that emerge from memory, mostly familiar from fleeting visits or drive-bys.

They can be mixed in a painting like in a dream. In the process, I'm looking for a painterly order, a mood image. They are inconspicuous places: Parking lots, streets, built-up areas and nature.

Human

In the paintings of humans, I try to combine physicality in light and shadow with a spiritual presence.

I would also like to see these humans together with some kind of landscape. These representations are and remain raw states. I do not want a photographic determination, not even in the portraits. These are based on quick little drawings of certain people. But I am looking for a pictorial space with it, which captures mental states and remains questioningly fragmentary.

Hotel

The hotel paintings are more about interiors, which are to be condensed into simple symbols of people' ephemeral furniture.

Tables, chairs, windows, items. Simple things, fleeting in the alternation of light glow and shadow.
