I am an artist, and I am a scientist.
When I left school, I first studied biology. Ten years, a Dr. title and a couple scientific publications later, I started my art career.
I was trained by the photographer Eberhard Gronau for three years. And I took courses in illustration in Vienna.
Today I combining both fields, science and art.
Why do I combine scinece and art?
Central to my approach is the deliberate use of neuroscientific insights.
Every visual element —color, form, contrast, pattern— is intentionally selected to stimulate
the viewer’s neural activity and evoke emotional resonance.
The scientific foundation of these decisions is an integral part of my artistic language:
studies on the impact of strong contrasts, the emotion-producing effect of dots and patterns,
and the brain’s particular sensitivity to the depiction of human faces all shape the composition of my works.
For this reason, many of my pieces feature human figures.
Their presence is not driven by narrative intentions but by their proven ability
to enhance attention, empathy, and emotional response in the brain.
Even the seemingly abstract design elements —strong contrasts and recurring dot structures—
serve less as narrative content and more as tools of neuroaesthetic impact.
For the content of my pictures the emotions and thoughts of the viewer are central.
My artworks are not meant to tell my story or thoughts first, but to create space for the stories of those who encounter them.
The titles of my artworks serve as quiet invitations, encouraging the viewer to uncover a meaning in the image that is uniquely their own.
My intention is to offer open structures that invite interpretation and emotional engagement,
allowing each viewer to find their own meaning within the work.
My Science & Art is a stimulating experience, an intentionally crafted impulse directed at the viewer’s brain.
What technique do I use?
I combine ink drawings on paper with digital backgrounds/photos to highlight the contrast between the objectivity of science and the
emotional texture of everyday life. This fusion of analog and digital reflects the tension between rational understanding and human experience.
My work seeks to open a dialogue between these two worlds, revealing their hidden connections.
