Artist`s Statement:

//reflections

The absence of the classic layout of sky, sea and beach in so-called seascapes or marine paintings and at the same time the change of perspective to an unusual angle is one of the prominent features of the cycle of my paintings “Reflections”. The focus on the water surface and at the same time by glazing technic achieved transparency of the water, that allows a view on the seabed, leads to a form of contemplation and therewith allow ourselves a moment of calm, which reminds us of how we relax sitting in the sand of the beach, leaving the daily routine behind and dedicating ourselves to the element water spiritually and physically and therewith learn to feel oneself again. A call to slow-down and to become aware of the essence of life. The painting procedure itself is a call to me as the artist to slow-down, as glazing technic with pigments in oil and resin requires patience, deepness, dedication, awareness and complete focussing. It has always been and remains the most demanding painting technic, a challenge in our times where everything has to be fast and faster, mankind chasing after success, money, pressure, no time to slow-down so this results in the phenomenon of our time that although we are highly developed in science, healthcare a.o., but we are getting sicker and sicker so does our planet and the atmosphere!
With my cycle of paintings “Reflections” I want to lead the viewer away from the here and now into a realm of deeper meaning and thus beyond the bounds of the painting. In this encounter the recipient meets a pure, clear, unspoiled, primeval version of nature and, at the same time, a utopian ideal of the future. My intention is to lead the viewer to look within and see the power of art to reveal the visual world and at the same time to visualize the invisible.
