Hardly any other image has given me so much trouble. Actually, it was supposed to be another architectural collage, but it wanted to go somewhere else. Only the hand protrudes from the structure. Nevertheless, the woman's gaze is directed outwards. For me, it is a sanctuary around a human being. It is their dignity, their essence. And that is always beautiful.

Some of my pictures rely on clarity and geometry, which results in an unexpected poetry.

An airship, a spaceship. A surreal machine hovering above the sea. Unlike many of my other floating objects, there is no trace of human presence here. The title suggests something not visible in the image. A search for something living.

"Pacific" - Andreas Weber's beautiful image of the dandelion was already very poetic in itself. It's strange how something like that can look poetic. It's just the fruit stand of a very common plant. This fragile construction of nature needed a sensitive and careful response. A gust of wind and all its splendor would have vanished. The houses are from Nice and Menton.

This is an alternative portrait of a self-assured woman. It was inspired by a trip to the French Riviera. Three of the motifs are from there. An image about strong, joyful femininity.

This painting was created after a personal crisis. I found comfort in the desire for ordered chaos, for tamed anarchy. Perhaps this painting is about the dignity of the mad and the fallen. The background image (Namibia) is by Sonja Schubert.

An image about a small child's magical perception of the world. The beams and rosettes are from half-timbered houses in the cities of Hameln and Einbeck.

This is the portrait of a child's world. My son was still very young at the time. I was always fascinated by how this delicate and vulnerable being was drawn to large machines and powerful engines. Again, I am exploring the contrast between fragility and strength, softness and hardness, youth and age.

In a small series, I have created living beings out of aircraft engines. It is astonishing how well this works. After all, machines are also an expression of something living: the human spirit.

In my art, houses are images representing a person's personality, their story, their dreams. Here, they are part of a family system seen through the eyes of a little girl. It's about strength, security, and stability. Thematically, this painting is very similar to the collage "Golden Boy," which, however, depicts a dysfunctional family.

I designed this image as an album cover for an early music ensemble. For this, I visited several museums to find suitable images. An image about music as a companion in life. It doesn't matter what era or culture, the harmony of the world is the same.
