About this artwork
The work depicts a side profile of a face, embedded in the picture plane in bright white and gray. The large, expressive eye is particularly prominent, lending the image an intense effect. The facial contours stand out clearly against the colorful background, which is composed of numerous superimposed patterns, lines, and structures in warm tones such as red, orange, and yellow. Fine halftone dots crisscross the facial area, lending the work an additional…
graphic dimension. The contrast between the calm, reduced profile and the complex, richly detailed background creates an exciting tension between clarity and complexity. The work is presented in a wide, simple frame with a passe-partout, further emphasizing the central motif.

Credentials
- Featured in gallery curations
- Works on commission
My father's interest in South American cultures was an early incentive for me to read in his library.
During my training I became interested in the Impressionists and Dutch painters. A subsequent graphic design course also expanded my skills in life drawing. A longer move to Santa Fe in New Mexico was a welcome change to soak up new inspiration. Three children's books and several book illustrations were created from this. After returning to Lake Waginger, I became interested in Japanese Zen Buddhism both through painting and intensive meditation. The founding of the joint KIWA Institute was followed by further training, which I completed in Malaysia with 2 master's degrees in Chinese astrology and classical Feng Shui. Since then I have been active in lectures, seminars and consultations as well as continuing to work as a painter in exhibitions.
