"Rare Squirrel II" from the picture series "Out of the Light" features colorfulColor areas. The color fields create aAbstract composition suggesting a squirrel. The artwork appears very modern in its minimalistic lightness. 

The ease of painting leads to the magical. 

The lightness of the painting is created by the brightness of the white-primed canvas combined with the earthy, gracefully applied color areas. These result in a stimulating, seemingly random composition. The grace of the color areas is crucial for the calm yet animated perception of the composition, as they allow the viewer to shift their perspective even after prolonged observation. Parts of the color areas define the shape of the squirrel, while the colors partially convey spatiality. The magic arises between the concrete outline of the squirrel and the abstract composition of the color areas.

The contemplation of abstract painting and the concrete subject creates an interplay of perception.

While the painting is experimental, it is still "slowed down" at certain boundaries. The outline of the squirrel acts as a kind of barrier when mixing the colors. This ensures that the subject is always perceptible. The choice of colors is also not entirely random: the animal motif is shown in the colors of itself and its surroundings. This way, spontaneous form and color compositions arise within the framework of a concept. Since the motif is constructed only over part of the boundaries of the color mixtures, the eye constantly shifts back to the abstract overall composition.
