Allgemein

Two works of my artistic work have been part of the art collection of the state of Mecklenburg and Western Pomerania since 2024. My work “FUTURE of past” (2023) and an edition of my work “gefunden” (found), which has been ongoing since 2017, are now part of the state's art collection.

I was particularly pleased with the studio visit by two representatives of the state's art commission, Dr. Merete Cobarg and Dr. Katrin Arrieta, and a representative of the Ministry of Science, Culture and European Affairs of Mecklenburg and Western Pomerania, Marthe Ruhnau and the editor Juliane Fuchs from Kultur-MV.

The installation “FUTURE of past” is a 54-part word art from 2023, created in my work with Maurinmühle and for the local time exhibition in the St. Laurentius Church in Schönberg.
The characters look familiar, like writing. But only three words are legible: FUTURE of past. The other elements form symbols for the viewer. In the attempt to decipher these simultaneously familiar and unfamiliar signs, we read our own history. Approaching our common history with our hearts and intuitions is also an approach to our common truth. Gilding reflects this highest value.

„gefunden“ ist eine fortlaufende Arbeit, mit der ich 2017 begann. Sie besteht aus einzelnen, verlorenen Handschuhen und Kontaktanzeigen aus der Zeitschrift Magazin. Gezeigt wurde sie u.a. im Künstlerhaus Dortmund (2022) und in der Kunsthalle Rostock (2023).
