Statement
One central aim of my artistic work is to
expand drawing. I detach the static image from the paper format and try to
shift the drawing from the two-dimensional surface into space and expand it in
the direction of sculpture and movement.
For me, drawings are something alive. Every
drawing that I produce is not fixed, but more like a snapshot from a dynamic
process. I want to make this dynamic visible within my drawings, which is why I
combine them with animated films. I draw with light reflections, shadow lines,
follow traces of movement, use the dynamics of liquids, gravity or growth
movements to create images. They are, so to speak, „drawings by natural
forces", and I approach them in digital and manual paintings, works on
paper and video installations.
I am not the drawer, the designer of these
lines, but rather the physical forces of nature, which work according to
physical laws. They are pictures drawn by nature itself! Nature as a „drawing
hand", the artist takes on the role of the receiver rather than the
designer or actor.
And I am not primarily interested in the
external appearance of the objects, but in the behavior and interactions of the
components – in other words, the movement!
