about
statement
In my artistic work, I deal with the conditions and possibilities of abstract painting. I largely dispense with a concrete motif, allowing the aspects inherent in painting to come to the fore: the materiality of color and ground, the pictorial space, certain hues, the nature of the surface, paint application, gestures and markings. I would describe my approach to painting as a combination of a considered procedure and intuitive action. In this way, I examine the points mentioned in an analytical way. At the same time I allow myself to be inspired by what happens during the painting process. Beyond examining the formal conditions of painting, I am interested in the atmospheric and emotional qualities of color in connection with personal experiences and memories.
