My focus is on my „Textilstein®“ (textile stone) works, which form the core theme of my art. In my works I transform postmodern materials into contemporary art or Anthropocene gemstones.
I am particularly proud of my series called “Sedimental,” which embodies the layering of memories. I transform old bed linen into „Textilstein“ (textile stone) and arrange them so that they are reminiscent of sedimentary layers of rock.
Another central theme of my work is rebirth and the pursuit of infinity in the language of textiles.
In my work the focus is always on color and aesthetics. The colors are created by combining different colored materials, which unfold their full effect in the eye of the beholder. What particularly distinguishes my work with „Textilstein“ is the hardness of the material, which is reminiscent of stone, and at the same time the surface, which is given a clearly textile character through processing and therefore appears velvety and soft.
My work brings a unique perspective on the transformation of materials and the beauty of textiles in contemporary art.
Thank you for your attention. I would be happy to provide you with further information or questions.
