Reflections are unavoidable - perhaps they are intentional, because wherever light falls, it is reflected by the surface of the picture. You approach a landscape that is constantly changing and you have to work your eyes to enter the picture. Once you have succeeded, you suddenly find yourself in an enigmatic ambience that is both disconcerting and mysterious because of its resolute reality.
Park Marl III, 150x220 cm, 2005
The veil strips in front of the picture turn out to be window curtains behind the viewer. The landscape emerges as if from behind a wall of fog. It changes shape and begins to move depending on the viewer's point of view.
Landscape around Obermarchtal, 150x250 cm, 2006
Many landscape photos, about forty to fifty, are copied into one another to create a kind of primer. All details that point to human civilization are retouched away. After a further 150 to 200 photos have been inserted into each other, a landscape emerges. The artist speaks of a "nature at the end of culture". This post-civilizational landscape actually has little to do with a "romantic landscape", which is often used by interpreters to characterize these images.
