statement of art

 In my artistic practice, the sustainable interaction with natural materials is paramount. Through the deliberate use of materials that originate directly from nature, I strive to establish a deeper connection between art and the environment. My aim is to highlight the aesthetic qualities and inherent beauty of these materials while simultaneously addressing their transience and transformation processes. 

 My artistic approach involves an intensive exploration of the diverse properties and potentials of various natural materials. This methodical experimentation allows me to discover new forms of expression and to transcend the boundaries of conventional artistic techniques. It is not only about the material dimension of art but also about a profound reflection on the relationship between humans and nature. 

 Mindfulness towards nature is an integral part of my artistic creation. My goal is to handle the resources provided by nature with respect and responsibility. Through my art, I seek to heighten awareness of the fragility and invaluable worth of the natural world and to encourage engagement with sustainable practices in both art and everyday life.

My works represent a homage to nature and act as a call for mindfulness and sustainability. They invite the viewer to pause and appreciate the complexity and beauty of nature in all its diversity. 

The main focus of my artistic work is on eco-printing, a technique that uses natural pigments and plant parts to create organic patterns on textiles and paper. This process-oriented approach allows for direct interaction between natural materials and substrates, thereby visualizing the transience and mutability of nature.
