  • Liberte – Screen print

    270,00 inc. VAT

    I first developed this motive in 2015 and later painted it at a festival south of Paris in 2017. Back then it was painted in grey with a crying goddess of liberty being the centre piece. It was a reminder of the reduction of personal liberties and the rise of right-wing rhetoric as a result of the attack on the Bataclan theatre in Paris in 2015 (original piece). As the Festival itself took place at a castle that had been used by the Francoist it was very fitting this perspective.

    Later, I redid the motive for a private commission on a Berlin wall. Now, painted in bright colours the idea was to have an uplifting motive of women fighting for their rights rather than being passive (Liberte reloaded).

    As Freedom has become the phrase our time. Just about one year ago, Russia invaded the Ukraine, who since then has fought for its freedom. For months, the people of Iran are fighting in a new revolution for the rights and lives of Iranian women and democracy.

    Everywhere in the world there is a lack of equal rights for all genders and the International Women’s Day on 8th of March is a reminder of that. On this occasion, the limited-edition screen print was officially released on the 8th of March 2023.

  • People of Veddel were photographed and the pictures converted into halftone images. To increase the level of anonymity but moreover to stay true to the concept of creating faces representing the people, parts of the faces where combined to create totally new faces. These are embedded into a repetitive pattern resembling old wallpapers which includes elements representing the neighbourhood and its people. These prints are accompanying the project “Gesichter der Veddel” (Faces of Veddel) as part of redesigning the Veddel Metro Station in Hamburg, Germany. Each print is shipped with the booklet “Gesichter der Veddel” (in German) which was published individually. Details:

  • Masks and China have been become synonyms for the Corona virus outbreak. But there is another fight going on, the fight for democracy and basic human rights. This is a homage to the young and old people in Hong Kong demanding the right of being self confident human beings. The glasses and mask were the same I wear when painting, but here combined with a plastic helmet and a black umbrella bearing a lotus are the tools of resistance fighters. Now, finally this popular motive is available as a limited edition screen print. Details:

  • Wallporn – Screen Print

    80,00 inc. VAT
    This pattern is taken from the motive Still Love (available as a screen print or as an original on canvas) and shows an assembly of sex toys forming what looks like the pattern of a baroque wallpaper.  It plays with the assumption that the female sexuality is considered private while the female body is objectified publicly via media and advertisement. If you would like to purchase all three colours, please get into touch with me here. Details:

    • All prints are signed, numbered and embossed.
  • Still Love shows a seemingly boring and pleasing still life. But what kind of flowers look like that? Well those that are made out of soft tampons. The motive addresses the issue that while the female body is often sexualised and dragged into the public by the media, advertisement, pornography or prostitution,  female sexuality and normal bodily functions are often considered private (for example period shaming). What is supposed to be behind closed doors is taken into the public and shown as what it is: normal and beautiful.

    This is the screen print, for the original, please have a look here. Details:

  • Eve – Screen Print

    100,00 inc. VAT

    The painting is a combination of 7 different woman's faces. The women origin from all parts of the world: Polynesia, Asia, Africa, East Europe, Latin America, Middle East.

    Two interesting scientific facts were the inspiration for this motive. On the one hand, a book by Brian Sykes called "The 7 daughters of Eve" in which he describes that all people currently living in Europe can map to only 7 common female ancestors. That means that instead of looking at the different countries and borders in Europe one can put these people together into only a handful of different families. Instead of dividing each other into “us” and “them”, we all merge into a big group of distantly related cousins. Furthermore, Sykes explained that these 7 daughters have also one common ancestor which he calls the mitochondrial Eve (as mitochondrial DNA mapping was used to investigate relationships). The more distant we look, it becomes obvious that every single living person today has one common ancestor shared with the people of all different parts of the world.

    Another interesting fact is a study conducted by the University of Copenhagen which revealed that all people who have blue eyes share a common ancestor which lived some 6.000-10.000 years ago. They figured this out by looking at the genetic mutation causing blue eyes and discovered that it was identical in all of their investigated subjects. This means that blue-eyed people from Northern Europe are related to blue-eyed people in China, Africa, and the Americas etc.

    The idea of the painting therefore is to show that we are all related, even if we look different because of the colour of our skin, the shape of our eyes or the language that we speak, we are closer to each other than we think making a self-identification based on borders and countries obsolete.

    ONE LOVE was first painted during the time the 2018 FIFA World Cup took place in Russia. The colours chosen are those of the rainbow flag as the motive deals with narcissism and homophobia. Since February 2022 the motive once again is up to date.  More about the mural can be found here, and a cut out version here. Details:

  • The quote “None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe they are free” is taken from the German poet Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. Though, almost 200 years old it is still true in the light of mass surveillance of our social activities. But it also addresses our need to capture every moment, share everything and take selfies, without thinking and reflecting.

  • Water is essential for humans and yet it is the perfect tool to distinguish between the poor and the rich. While it is so cheap that you can bath in it in the Western world, people in the poorest parts of the world spend the majority of their income for its supply. The absence of clean drinking water leads to social differences and conflicts.

  • ‘Terrorists’ plays with the propaganda of the word and addresses the loss of personal freedom. Every foreign citizen traveling on transit through the US has to provide a fingerprint scan. ‘Terrorists’ shows fingerprints with the faces of Nelson Mandela, Osama Bin Laden and an unknown individual with the word ‘Terrorist’ written underneath. To name someone a terrorist is very subjective. For most people, Mandela was a legend, a fighter for the ANC, a Nobel Peace Prize laureate and President of South Africa, however, for the apartheid regime he most certainly was a terrorist who got locked up for decades. For the western world Bin Laden was a terrorist but for others he was not. In Central America one could buy T-Shirts with his face, these people were not Islamists but appreciated anyone who had ‘pissed-off’ the US. The borders between ‘good’ and ‘evil’ are not clear and introducing a fingerprint scan might label an average man a terrorist.

  • Saramago – Screen Print

    65,00 inc. VAT

    A halftone print gives you the illusion of looking at a grey-and-white picture, even though the picture is made only of black dots (much like the photos in old newspapers). With increased distance our eyes merge these differences into shades of grey.

    The quote “I think we are all blind. We are blind people that can see but that do not look” is taken from Jose Saramago’s novel ‘Blindness’. Even though we might see other people, the problems, suffering and destruction, we often fail to perceive them. Just like a halftone, you have to look closely in order to see its core and not just shades.
