About this artwork
This series is made up of circular works which change colors depending on your viewpoint. Each piece can be rotated freely on its axis (360%). As you turn the piece, its hues shift and the mood of the piece is transformed.
The title, Subvers is a reference to the way each layer of texture affects the next one, as the writing tool slides over the surface, each bump causes it to vibrate, affecting each stroke.
The technique in which… the different shades of orange, red, purple and skyblue are applied you could say is a way of painting light. As your viewpoint changes, the artwork is bathed in warm morning light, or cool evening hues.
*The title of this series is a play on the German word “Zeitgeist,” which refers to a way of thinking that is symbolic for a moment in time. “Zeig,” (to show), combined with “Geist,” (ghost/spirit), could be interpreted as the "spirit of showing (time)". Each of these works is built from the accumulation of many layers over time

In his work, he explores four fundamental levels of handwriting: the invention and transformation of signs; continuous writing, which, through repetition, makes humanity visible; the development of custom writing tools, that shape the stroke; and the analysis and repurposing of materials from writing cultures, leading to experiments with sand, pigments and wood.
The artist develops tools and techniques that are idiosyncratic, almost defiant. They demand physical effort, they distort, chop, and multiply the stroke—giving it temperament. This process highlights the question of authorship: Who is writing here—the hand, the tool, or the surface?
