As part of this year’s ImPulsTanz festival campaign we designed a face filter together with the hyped 3D makeup artist Ines Alpha. The filter is a key visual for the out-of-home campaign, gives ImPulsTanz the possibility to reach out to their community and overcome Covid-19 restriction by celebrating in digital space. The face filter can be tried out on @cincin_vienna. With the colorful visuals we celebrate diversity, dance and the international ImPulsTanz community.

The Magnum opus is an alchemical term for the process of working with the prima materia to create the philosopher’s stone. It has been used to describe personal and spiritual
transformation, attached to laboratory processes and chemical color changes.

The four most common stages are:
nigredo (the blackening or melanosis albedo)
albedo (the whitening or leucosis)
rubedo (the reddening, purpling, or iosis)
citrinitas (the yellowing or xanthosis)

The diversity of people needs more space in the increasingly homogenous world of film. The visuals “claim” the “space” to bring more diversity to the screen. The transition international queer & minorities film festival shows the diversity of minorities within the LGBTIQA+ spectrum and uses the opportunity to confront and break stereotypes.

Immerse yourself in a festival full of discussion and reflection. Explore pornography, sexuality and sexual identity far from the monotonous clichéd mainstream porn.
PFFV aims to challenge and expand horizons to collectively present with pride, feminist, queer & LGBTQIA+ positions.

The Recisi project, for the Cavò of Trieste, consists of a series of eight diptychs: between anonymous vintage photographic portraits (“severed” in identity but rich in evocative power) and the monochrome painting of flowers (hommage à Katsushika Hokusai), sprouts a true soul correspondence. In his Nishiki-e prints the Japanese master chose to depict the floral world by cutting the composition downwards. As the Japanese ikebana, literally “living flowers”, is a composition of cut flowers, the detachment from the origin becomes a metaphor for a peremptory change that can give creative and poetic results. Recisi pays homage to the tradition of florigraphy, across the ages and cultures.

How do you actually find really good ideas? I don’t know, at some point they just appear.

When the curves of two bodies meet and intertwine, a line is created and draws the path of a moment of tenderness and love.

A grid of 5 by 8 partially glowing spikes is assigned with 40 dedicated colour values between red and cyan.
By bleeding into each other and bouncing off solid surfaces the colours become a single gradient, thereby contrasting the sharpness of the object and the subtle flow of light.
Among all colours there is also one where red and cyan are in a perfect balance, creating a shade of grey—thereby illustrating that even a place of great difference can have a spot of calm.

_voyager consists of analog drawn shapes further edited digitally with bright color and combined with typography.
A combination of analog drawing and progressiv color.

Dance forward. It’s a great journey.

Art is a question of perspective.

Please keep Dreaming is a free project me and my wife created to support friends of ours. They lost their house, which they had built with a lot of love, in a fire. Apart from raising some money by selling postcards with this motif, we hopefully helped them not to give up their dream of building their own beautiful house. A nice side effect was that people bought the postcards, as the message can be applied to many situations.

Nāga, alter ego for Francesco Meoli, is a portuguese composer, producer and keyboard player who is starting his personal project. Nāga deconstructs music and musical genres, following no rules, creating mystic and transcendents frequencies.

This poster takes the phrase “single and ready to mingle” and applies it to the environmental hazard that single-use plastics pose to the earth. Most of these synthetic materials are not biodegradable, leaving them to mingle with both flora and fauna to devastating effect.

One can dream

Stacks on Stacks is a fictive book fair taking place in Arnhem. The poster made for the fair is built on a grid of 500 book spines and a title in motion moving through the grid. The movement creates an illusion as if the title is fading out, somehow also mimicking the old analogue billboards rolling posters up and down.

My spanish grandmother is the most beautiful princess when she’s dreaming in her bed.

a spectrum describes the distribution of colors (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple) produced when white light is dispersed by a prism or diffraction grating – also it is the range between two extreme points.
In this series I show which colors can be found in a color spectrum defined by me and how many variations there are within each color. The photos are taken from my archive.

Es galt ein Key Visual für die Jüdische Woche 2021 in Leipzig unter der Berücksichtigung der bestehenden Wortmarke »Shalom« zu entwickeln. Das diesjährige Thema »1700 Jahre jüdisches Leben in Deutschland« gab uns den Anlass die typografische Entwicklung des hebräischen Buchstaben »Lamed« (enthalten in »Shalom«) zu betrachten. Wir setzten dem »Lamed« der Wortmarke eine hebräische Sans Serif entgegen und ließen diese grafisch ineinander übergehen – einen Wandel der einen zur anderen Schriftgeneration vollziehen.

My current drawing project “Z!?” deals with the present condition of cultured forests in northern Germany influenced by increasing carbon pollution. Many perceive these artificially grown forests as the norm and few places remain wild. Since it is harder to connect with cultured forests, humans’ connection with German forests decreases. While looking at nature, the forest is viewed solely as a natural resource to be harvested as a commodity.
As an artist, my work revolves around this ambivalent relationship and the alienation process between humans and nature. Through my drawings, I address existing problems in terms of natural politics and build moments of connection.

During one of the lockdowns I created these colour gradients. They remind me of the surface of a balloon or similar structure, flexible but fragile, and here on the edge of bursting through a delicate spike. A tense situation, not unlike the current global circumstances, affecting my perception and mind, and what I end up creating.

Dispersion means: “The separation of light into different colours”, but also “the spreading of people or things over a wide area”.
The form itself seems to suck everything into it but when light comes into play the form disperses the colours of the spectrum almost like an explosion.

With all these magnificent and beautiful colors this world has to offer, it is important to sometimes take a step back and embrace the more specific. Six colors can be enough to deliver the message of diversity, pride and freedom.

This poster advocates for funding of the arts. The quote, logic will get you from a to b, imagination will take you everywhere, is featured. The yellow line draws inspiration from the quote and the yellow color is a reference to the yellow brick road that leads to possibilities.
