ABOUT

POSITION

Art was my first language. Not out of talent, but out of necessity. Drawing was a way to stay in a world that often felt too loud, too fast, too close. Images helped me endure what couldn’t be ordered. I’ve lived in Cologne since childhood and have long moved between teaching and the studio. There, I’ve seen again and again what fear does: it makes you cautious, correct, empty. Good images rarely die from a lack of skill they die from control. From the need to do nothing wrong.

“Dekompression” grows out of the opposite. These works let go. They allow fractures, overlaps, repetitions. They carry traces of relationship patterns, inner conflicts, ego - power plays not as explanations, but as material. Nothing here is resolved, nothing tidy. That’s exactly what interests me. After years in which responsibility, closeness, and everyday life have taken new forms, these images don’t return they emerge. Without the need to prove anything. Without expecting to be read correctly. What hangs here doesn’t seek consensus.
It seeks resonance.

This Images are not decoration!

WHAT THIS ART IS ABOUT

Making the inner noise visible. I work with collage, text and mixed media to build handmade chaos that you can actually read. Each piece holds layers of self, childhood fragments, relationship patterns, coping and self‑talk, small and big epiphanias, all at once. Inside it’s loud, but this overwhelm is information, not a defect.

The work moves from chaos to clarity, from overload to insight, from fragmentation to reassembly. These images are not decoration. They are daily reminders for people who feel stuck in old roles and want to break patterns without lying to themselves. Bold art for harmonious spaces – so your home stays calm, but your walls keep asking better questions.

WHERE IT ALL BEGAN

As a kid I was always drawing, not to impress anyone, but because pictures felt easier than words. Over the years that habit became a lifeline. Whenever things got loud inside, I reached for paper, scissors, pens and paint. At some point I realized this wasn’t just a pastime, it was my way of thinking.

Today that same impulse still drives the work. I use collage, text and mixed media to turn inner noise into something you can actually look at. Handmade chaos that reveals patterns, memories and relationship dynamics instead of hiding them. What started as a private coping tool has grown into a body of images that move from chaos to clarity and act as daily reminders for people who are ready to see their own stories more honestly.

MY SIGNATURE STYLE

My signature style grows out of chaos, not from clean concepts. The works are dense, text driven collages where handwriting, figures and symbols overlap until they feel almost too loud, very close to how a nervous system under pressure actually works. Instead of chasing perfection or photorealism, I try to capture patterns. Childhood fragments, relationship dynamics, ego games and the way we talk to ourselves when nobody hears.

Each piece is built in layers, so you can keep discovering new details and connections over time. The aim is not to make neutral wall decor, but to create psychological maps that feel uncomfortably true and, for some people, strangely relieving, a visual language that is recognizable even if you have never seen my work before.

MY APPROACH

My approach is simple and uncompromising. The work has to be honest, or it is not worth doing. I start from what is actually there, inner noise, fragmentation, the stories people carry but rarely say out loud. Instead of smoothing this down, I build it visible layers of collage, handwriting, figures and symbols that overlap like thoughts at three in the morning.

I don’t plan tidy series in advance. I work intuitively, following what feels psychologically true rather than what seems marketable. Years of teaching art have shown me how much fear and perfectionism cut people off from their own expression. In my studio I actively push against these reflexes. Mistakes and fractions stay in the images; text is allowed to be loud. The result is art that may look chaotic at first glance, but on a second look reveals patterns, connections and a surprising amount of clarity.
