Artist Statement
In search of freedom: impartial, courageous, curious
Inner freedom is the key to a self-designed life and thus to more life satisfaction and fulfillment. In everyday life, the inner freedom between obligations, pressure and constraints is often lost. We work. But are we using our options to choose? Do we actively influence our creative freedom and increase it in order to live self-determinedly and develop?
My art wants to free our thoughts and overcome barriers. Discovering structures, lines and details it offers moments of deceleration. My landscapes are like a short trip that clears the mind. They are limitless, open and alive. My work inspires us to question our own limits and to become aware of our own freedom of choice and strength. Only we ourselves can give ourselves inner freedom. My art invites you to be impartial, courageous and curious, even in everyday life. It says: Follow your personal path.
In my paintings, city and nature combine harmoniously to create places full of power and mystery. One’s own self-development brings individual life satisfaction for the individual. This leads to a more harmonious coexistence of all. Such cooperation can release enormous potential. More energy is available without conflicts caused by dissatisfaction. We as a society can use this power positively for peace, understanding and justice. I wish for this.
My vision: A world in which everyone can shape his or her own life and develop freely. For individual fulfillment and harmonious coexistence.
