Short statement to my work:

Landscape is everywhere: in addition to landscapes in nature, there exist also body- and face  landscapes. So there does not exist no landscape. I’m interested in all landscapes.

There are – roughly speaking – two possibilities to design a topic artistically: the reproduction of as many details as possible or the representation reduced to what appears as most essential, even up to abstraction. The result is – must be – a very personal point of view.
