public space - screen printing - installation - artistic research
I realize in-situ projects with a special intervention technique: vertical screen printing directly on walls and glass sections. There is something magical about screen printing directly on a wall or on glass. Nothing is more fleeting than that wafer-thin layer of ink on a window, nothing seems more eternal than the same motif incorporated into the wall as an ancient fresco. There is no intermediate layer, no distance. This immediacy links the work inextricably with the place and the specific moment. I work from start to finish on the spot, not in a workshop or studio, but in public. That too is very intense and has something magical about it. The world is already around me. And she also exists without me. She interacts with what I think. She doesn't need me. I have to assert myself. I have to find a necessity. That is the big challenge, every time.
