Interieur 1.0

"Interieur 1.0" is a mixed-media artwork on canvas from 2025. It is a combination of painting and collage, in which the painted areas engage in a subtle dialogue with the collaged paper fragments. The painting consists of many layers of paint, which give it a profound visual sensitivity. I approach the canvas as a site of excavation, where the image retains the trace of its own making. I worked intensively on the juxtaposition and interaction of spaces, shapes and colours. The spontaneous placement of colours and shapes is almost always followed by a review of the rhythm, spacing and size of the elements and colours, as well as the alternation between dense and open areas. Then comes the adjustment: I shift, change, reduce or intensify – this creates movement in the alternation between action and reflection. During this creative process, I then decide whether to incorporate collage elements into the picture or let them fade away later. The result is a heterogeneous aesthetic, combined with many possible interpretations.
