lapland blues, or cornflowers in the snow: acrylic polymer binder, inks, resin on ceramic (30x50cm)
i really was somewhat surprised that one morning the earth was covered by 10 cm snow – in the middle of the lapland’s summer!!
my small world: solitary coral colony.
this work might look kitschy 🐟, but my issue isn’t: corals are bleaching, they are dying. a world without these architectural wonders means not only less diverse and less beautiful ocean 💦, but an economic disaster for many people – especially in developing countries. the reason reefs are disappearing is human-made (overfishing, pollution, fossil fuels warming the planet 🌏). corals may not survive this intensity of the ongoing changes. do you like to breathe? for that, you need a healthy ocean 🌊. the most oxygen you inhale comes from there. I am very conscious about the fact, that we are quite the first generation to know we are destroying our planet, and the last that could do something about it 🌈.
acrylics, tyvek and other stuff in bio-resin /20x20x5cm/and the weight is about a ton 😉😇
my anothermicroworld – geology of the soul / golden islands (16). mixed media: steelplate, acrylic paints, inks, mixatives, resin – all embedded in plywood (40 x 40 cm). somebody said once about this work: „another circular door for us to open in our minds. once open, we allow ourselves to drift into dreams and experience deep positive feelings.“
I wished I could share with you this hypnotic and all-enveloping spicy warmth of the woods in the arctic: these intoxicating scents of the forest on the tip of my nose and the sweet kisses by moss and horsetail on my heels…
