Artists make art. Art can be beautiful, but also confronting, or even frightening. Many artists, like me, try to show their thoughts, their feelings and, many times, their vision of society. You are always able to find a message in my work.

1. MY VISION OF ART

Art is personal. You may like it, or not. I noticed society becomes less and less permissive regarding to real art and how it is portrayed. But please let us be aware that whatever restrictions society puts on art, this only will result in making art less and less valuable.Ā 

Real art is a mirror of an era. Art reveals the stories of society in our history. Our thoughts and feelings of a specific period are mostly reflected in the remaining art.

Above all, my opinion is that art must be cherished for our future, so that future generations may be inspired by the lessons we leave behind.

Please note art is part of the artist. The way of sharing the art, is the choice of the artist. In order to keep art as valuable as it should be, it always comes with a price. In money, but, may be even more, in respect.

Let us unite to protect our art and let us open our hearts to connect with each other, instead of pushing each other away.

For this site, I framed some statements to keep things clear. So here we go!

5. LIBERTAS

I cannot get away from the impression, that our world changed over the last few years. Under the pretext of ‘Freedom’ or ‘democracy’, more and more restrictions are slightly imposed to us. We seem toĀ have forgotten where the word ‘liberal’ comes from. Libertas is the original, Latin expression of freedom. And I hope that in the near future ‘libertas’ will revive to encourage people to grow, instead of restricting entire societies and forcing people to behave exactly like governing politicians want.

Real freedom will encourage people to grow and to become a better version of themselves, instead of trying to catch every human being in a delimited box, serving society.

In my work, I am aiming for a real free and open minded world, filled with respect and love.

Together we can make it happen!

With love,Ā
