About this artwork
This picture is stylistically completely out of the ordinary, but deals with the same questions as the other works.
The blue sky, under whose endless expanse once the nameless cowboy rode through the desert, has become the abyss at his feet. The suitcase sinks in the desert sand, the view is lowered. But this look does not apply to his victim whose flowered bra he has hung over the wooden cross next to him. It is the introspective view of the suicidal… narcissist who identifies with the dilemma of a role that he negates and affirms in the process of creating a work that has no meaning whatsoever. It is the look of guilt, a guilt that can only endure in the poses of delusional heroism and boundless self-pity, and which must inevitably lead to violence against the coveted. But the ambiguity of violence and desire also inevitably leads to a deep, indestructible love: the love of painting.

« There is love and hate. There is war and peace. There is, sex, work, food... and then there is the art. The art is the best. »
Henry Woller is a German painter and draftsman who has exhibited his work in Sweden, Germany, the UK and US. He believes that the true painting begins when an artist's initial failure - whether technical or conceptual, takes place. Woller composes works that explore themes such as death, glory, modernity and technology.
