For me, colour-form compositions and text-sound creations are the most challenging route to self-awareness and self-discovery: Colours, shapes, shading and movement, together with words and melodies, are ways of expressing thoughts and emotions that can lead into the depths of the psyche and the spirit.

In paintings, texts and songs I engage with polarities such as harmony and tension, order and chaos, spirit and psyche, but above all my favourite life theme of ‘time’, ‘temporality’ and ‘timelessness’ – as reflected in my artistic work. My affinity to this phenomenon remains unflagging and finds its expression in both, my artistic creations and my intellectual work (books on the topic of ‘boredom’).
