Art de Fact

In my new series "Art de fact" I reflect on the zeitgeist, which seems increasingly surreal to me due to its instability, unpredictability and unreality. In "Art de fact" it´s about the following thesis: if today efficacy means more than truth, virtuality increasingly replaces physical reality, and affects dominate meaning and reason, then art might provide support, orientation and meaning. In my opinion art is not for communicating or even teaching moral or political convictions, but represents plurality and ambivalence. The more uncertain the facts, the more important the feelings; the images should provoke a reaction, whether disturbing or pleasing, and motivate people to listen and see within. The work is based on photography. I work digitally “by hand” (photoshop), use collages and montages and do not generate any image components using artificial intelligence.
