Experiments and contemporary art combined.

"RE 2" is the result of a creative experiment and an interesting example of contemporary art. This wall object, created in 2012, shows above all colortubes and utensils, arranged behind glass and frame. The vibrant, dry colors merge in a unique way with the metal and plastic of the tubes. The dense arrangement creates a harmonious symphony of colors and textures.
 

Contrast between old and new elements.


This contrast refers to the use of old brushes, tubes, and paint rollers in a contemporary artwork. The old elements represent the past, tradition, and experience, while the contemporary presentation indicates that these elements are still relevant and vibrant. This symbolizes how the past lives on in the present and how artistic traditions endure through time.


Contrast between order and chaos.


The materials and colors are densely applied and in parts arranged vertically, so that the dark background is barely visible. This creates a contrast between order and chaos. The arrangement of the tubes and utensils stands for structure and control, while the mixing of the colors and the irregularity of the background symbolize chaos or unpredictability. This contrast challenges me as an artist to find harmony amid chaos and to create order within disorder.


Contrast between color and darkness. 


The contrast refers to the combination of dry colours and the dark background. The colours represent life, energy and creativity, while the darkness stands for the unknown, the hidden or the mysterious. This contrast symbolises how artistic creation and the pursuit of beauty in art often arise from the darkness of the unconscious or from challenges.

The search for harmony within the artwork.

I try to find a balance between old and new approaches, order and chaos, as well as color and darkness. This process of seeking harmony amid opposites is often a central theme in art and in life itself, and “Reste eines Experiments 2” expresses this universal challenge.




Interesting facts about the painting "Remnants of an Experiment 2".

Despite the many colors, "Remnants of an Experiment 2" has a rather subtle effect and can be enjoyed both from a distance (perception of spatiality) and up close (variety of structure and color). The painting is signed, and the frame is painted white. The artwork can therefore be displayed immediately – with two nails in the wall.
