Cross and Night
I want to…avoid…a specific commentary on this visual thematic. I have been in the unclear about much, and remain in night, darkness, and fog.
However, be it noted that the question of „presence“, „re-present“, „evidence/proof“, etc. that for hundreds of years circulated through the Christian churches has also been troubling my mind for a long time, because even at that time the paths to the art of the 20th century had already been set. At present, everything is more varied. Today‘s artists no longer seem to rule out a special kind of hedonism and spiritualism. Ever since I came to know this, I have preferred to circumvent religious interpretations of my work. Personal, subjective, psychological, and analytical theorems are hardly suitable for these themes. A strong personal fascination with the cross and with night gives me the strength to set to work; I want to spot the various aspects of these paintings slowly for myself.
