The happiness of childhood, sweet memories of candy without caring about anything. This is a feeling I remember deeply inside of me. I want to share that feeling or bring it back to you, too.

The painting “atomized” shows a short moment- like the last picture of a film roll it is fading out to the pink color spectrum on the right side. It is painted realistically and abstract at the same time. It shows joy of life and transience. The view you have through the foam gives only limited glimpses, most areas are blurred or covered. Like foam clouds and soap bubbles also this shared moment dissolves shortly. A faded image, a beautiful memory, a feeling remains.

Atomized

It’s the first picture of my new series City lights playing cinematically with colorful night lights. The windows in the small street are dark, the caretaker of the small brightly lit parlor is not to be seen- maybe he fell asleep or has escaped from his lonely job. There is a strong fascination with pink and red neon lights, which give touch of wicked red-light or shabby station districts. Next to them there are offers for babysitting or real estate agency services. The main actor is a fashionably colored little dog- you wonder what the owner looks like, whether it has been forgotten or if it is just a toy. How can we get to the kernel of the brute? (the poodle stands for Mephistopheles in Goethe’s Faust)
