Lives and works in Berlin, Germany

I have had an open mind and I began with art works because of
art calls from different art spaces in BERLIN. I was interested
in creating a good atmosphere in life. We know it from Yoga,
Pilates and other sports. I wanted to have fun. I wanted to make
money. My focus was to work out “quality” and “singularity”
with easy methods. I like the contrast from a crazy drawing
on trash or cardboard and its realization with professional
technics. I know “cheap art”, “fun art” and “street art” from Jim
Avignon. I know installation works from Yukihiro Taguchi. I have
seen art-books and prints from the artist Schoko Casana Rosso.
I learned in Berlin that we are living in a culture of pictures. To
be in a culture of pictures means to understand patterns of life

style and to communicate this process. With my prints on glass
in my last book project I presented biographical elements. I
could find here a certain balance in my feelings. Before I have
had a group exhibition in New York with oil on papers. My
actual work wants to bring an emotional thought into a form.
I looked here into my old boxes from earlier periods. I have
chosen portraits what are characters with their own charming
style. In my second book I show more the results of “well done
sessions”. My intention is to make bigger pictures with a high
emotional input. I can take part in exhibitions in Italy and I have
won another, a second prize (WOA). I want to realize a Personal
Book. I feel in a good condition. I don´t want only the shopping
or the entertainment world. I don´t want to finish. I enjoy to
work together with people we know from long time ago. We
want to be a good working community. We make a work in
a field, where often there are no other structures. We are in
danger that life style absorbs real life. What is happening? This
is my work, observing what happens.
