About this artwork
One of my inspirations is the journey back to the origins of words and objects. These journeys into the past, which lead me through so many countries and cultures, show me the amazing depth and complexity of the everyday present „ordinary“, which seldom is as ordinary as it seems on first glance. On those journeys I learn as well how the meaning of words can change over time, how fluid a language is. To experience these changes is often an eye-opener… and very enriching. In this series, I want to depict the fluidity of language visually. Etymological studies of the origins and history of words-written with felt pen on watercolor paper- serve as my basis for this work. Afterwards watercolor and ink is applied in simple shapes, letting the writing flow and reshape.
I was born 1961 in Germany. From 1987-1998 I lived in Amsterdam, where I studied painting at the Gerrit Rietveld Academie. In 1998 I moved to Suriname for 16 years. Since 2014 I’m back in Germany and live in Berlin. My work deals with the basic conditions of nature, life and humanity. What is our spiritual and mental baggage and how do we use it? What in life is rather insignificant and what remains as the indispensable, essential and also the unavoidable core of life? The impressions and expieriences of living for 16 years in the tropics, a totally different way of life, influence my work and changed my perception of what I can take for granted and my notion of „reality“. I have different kinds of work with different qualities. I like the flowing properties of watercolors, where things sometimes develope unforseen and on their own, and the pasty, earthy richness of acrylic paint. But sometimes my alchemistic tendencies take over and I experiment with all sorts of materials.
