"It is not the illustration of reality the goal of art, but the creation of its own world." Fernando Botero I was born and grew up in Germany /Franconia. Since the completed study of interior design, which has followed a short detour to art therapy, I have lived in the Munich area. After completing my studies, I worked as an interior designer and in parallel for several years as a lecturer for architectural perspective and performing geometry. During this time, painting has always accompanied me and has become my main topic since 2017. The fascination that painting on me is in the process of painting, dealing with the picture. I also share this enthusiasm, which I feel for painting, for photography. It often forms inspiration for my pictures. When I'm traveling with the camera, always looking for motifs, compositions, structures and interesting lines. In these recordings, I am interested in the excerpt, the detail, the game of color, shape and line…. The reduction and abstraction. The freedom caused by this abstraction, this encryption and alienation is more interesting for me than the image of the apparently real one. My pictures are compositions of emotional space landscapes that have rely on reales, but have been processed and re -dive in a different form. They arise from the overlay of one layer through the next. Orders of colored areas and shapes, which are often also poured, alternate with a layer of line structures or writings and symbols and the familiarization of material and collage elements.
