Ursprüngliche Etna – Pflanzen – Frau – Einheit Naturschutzgebiet Etna-Süd Ostsizilien (original Etna – plant – woman – unity na Painting

born at the 27th of July 1971 in Mannheim/GermanyIt is my goal, to direct man`s attention on his relation to nature.1.motives: all pictures deal with the theme of unity, more exactly the original unity of human being, animal and nature. Animals are painted as optical delusions to show their adaptability in nature. However men appears all the time at a second level of the picture, which is loosen from the nature level.2.technique: two creative ideas are characteristicly for the pictures. On the one side some motives are figured plastically on the painted canvas. Dust Materials like cardboard, textile, cork, wire, gypsum or sand are used for these figured compositions. On the other side some motives especially human beings - are cut out of the painted canvas appearing on the pictuer level below the canvas. These creative ideas are used seperately or in combination. 3.preferred materials: oil on canvas/cotton and hardbord, mixed technique on canvas/cotton and hardbord,4.message: 2 levels- levels of life: the different pictuers levels can be comprehended as a allegory for different levels of life. The canvas level is a symbol for nature, which is the origin of human being still today. However the second level shows the process of estrangement of civilized man in relation to nature. Civilisation estranges man from nature. (Maybe viewer will come to a new conclusion about his relation to nature and wishes to be part of it, to be part of entirety. At least you should wonder: on which level do i wish to live, how can i become part of entierty, what is below the visible reality, which value does nature have for man, can I accept responsibility for nature?)
