About this artwork
The vibrant colors evoke a play of hues created when light is refracted—a prism that makes the invisible visible. At the same time, the image itself is "refracted" by geometrically arranged color fields and clear lines that structure and divide the work. This combination of precise geometry and vivid color generates tension: the image appears cool and rational, yet also emotional and alive. Thus, "refraction" invites the viewer to move between order…
and emotion, clarity and fragmentation.
Framing: white wooden frame with glass pane. 50 x 50 cm, 2 cm wide, 2 cm deep.

ART MUST SOUND
Painting as a physical process
For me, painting is far more than the visual representation of an idea; it is the documentation of emotions through action. Just as a sound requires a physical vibration, a picture is created through the movement, pressure, resistance, and tempo of the arm—the hand.
Pigments and oil are applied, blurred, smeared, and then removed. Through this dynamic manipulation of the surface, pigments are revealed or stand in sudden contrast to one another. Chance also plays a role, as not every result can be planned in advance. Rather, it emerges from the dialogue between the artist's intention and the physical properties of the materials.
The end result is a multi-layered surface that bears the story of its own creation – a silent echo of the movements that brought it about.
