WELCOME TO MY WEBSITE

It is almost 40 years ago when I left the Academie of Fine Arts in Stuttgart. The study course was called free and functional ceramics. I dedicated my time to sculptures and installations, running through many different periods of trial and error, still remaining a tireless dicoverer.
To be honest, I have become very critical about the criteria, artists are asked for in order to proove their professionalism. The art world has become dominated by statements and positions, by endless explanations and intellectual challenges. If you need so many words to explain and justify creativity and expression, why not just stop talking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My ceramics:
There is hardly any technique, I skipped. Being into this field of art, means exploring an expanding universe and sometimes being overwhelmed by overflowing inspirations.
Water, being the element which I feel very much drawn to, might have literally been the source of creating surfaces by adding glass, that will melt and cover the body.
Therefore, since 2022, I am experimenting in this field, observing the results and navigating myself through the innumerable decisions, I could take.
Looking at the history of my work, you will notice a specific basic shape in many of my architectural sculptures. This basic form has its own history. Based on a groundplan, made up of a stretched rectangle with two apsides, the arising shape is symmetrical and horizontal. This type of body mediates resistance and solidity. It is unshakeable and reliable. There is also a silence to it. It seems to absorb noise or even repel it:
(„Melancholia“, „Dark Matters“, „Archive of Frozen Tears“, „Iceage Depot“, . . . )
Some of my sculptures are purely conceptual, some are tuned by a certain poetic input, inspired by natural phenomena.
At the end of 2025 I gradually turned away from solid compact shapes.
Since october 2025 I felt that my work was about to change deeply. There is nothing more I can say at the moment. I will have to trust the process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2026 comes with two major subjects:
PIECES OF A PLANET and TABLES OF THE MAGICIAN
Very soon I will tell you more about these two unfolding stories, that slowly developped from my architectural sculptures.<\/strong>
