ABOUT ME

Welcome to a world of colours and light

Today I can look back on more than 50 years of activity as an artist. My works normally emerge from self-created projects, which are characterized by an important topic or a fascinating technique. Many projects run parallel over several years.

The most noteworthy projects include photo collages, psycho-portraits, stylized nude pictures, double-sided room dividers and textile work, some of which - and more - can be seen on this website.

The project irrelichter, an absurd and at the same time colourful caricature of traditional german domestic lighting methods, can be seen on www.irrelichter.eu.
