As a synesthete, I experience multiple senses simultaneously, i. e. I see digits and letters as certain colors. In a current project titled „Like A House On Fire“ I transfer information from an autobiographic text into abstract geometric drawings through repeated translation. For example, protagonists are identified by their initials, initials are equated with numbers, numbers are split into digits, digits are associated with colors, et cetera. The result are diagrammatic metaphors, which are at once rational and enigmatic, and which shed a new light on past and present experience.

Between the constant lockdowns due to Corona, categories of in– and outside, private and public the mind keeps jumping between different states of awareness. Locking oneself in certain circumstances while opening to others. More than before structure is what keeps the mind going at ease.

Just a funny acid thing.

The human touch is an essential need for every person. Through touch we communicate our feelings and share love and compassion. Due to the hygiene measures of the pandemic we suffer from a lack of physical interaction. The colourful design embodies for me the joy when we hopefully soon hug each other again.

Spots is a series of 8 riso-prints and a book. Artworks are made by a computer algorithm that was ‘melting’ spots of color transforming them into digital painting. Then all the paintings were separated into three bright colors each and printed on a risograph machine

Sometimes an analogue camera jams… Sometimes the lab overlaps negative frames…
Sometime these ‘problems’ create a mutation that works in an acceptable way.

Public Service Announcement!
Any better solutions?
How long will nature prevail?
Going green…

Upon some of my first times in Berlin, I noticed many bright, alluring, new promotions for parties and events. So many promoted in the same way; on the streets.

After the experience, most friends, myself and others are left feeling wonderfully trashed, broken down and dirty.

When we reflect on those times, only some layers of memory show us what we experienced. Some color; some bright light; some mood, all lumped into one big tattered memory.

A still from a video project with a synopsis that is meant to show a day in the life of an elder Berliner, who reflects on his (early and present) life when faced with the high probability of contracting a government announced dangerous communicable pathogen. Concern, angst, fear and worry cross his mind during the world wide shutdown in Berlin.

Promotional image for Berlin based music project ‘Circular Ruins’. The photographic project projects potential cosmical sonic interpretations in the minds of those here on Earth.

A monthly routine of daily creation.
Over the duration of the last month of 2020 I created digital Still Lifes and Beats on a daily basis. I chose the medium of 3D Still Lifes because I wanted to sculpt the feelings of the particular day into something that would allow the beholder to discover different aspects about it.

The corporate design for NudgeMe Coaching is an homage to the precisely drawn brands of the commercial graphic artists. It is a timeless design of the name’s initials. The visual appearance of management consultancies is often conservative, serious and masculine. NudgeMe Coaching stands in contrast to these companies and aims to appeal to young people of all genders. The contemporary visual contrast is created by a color concept consisting of a purple and orange hue. The logo design shows the NudgeMe Coaching company’s initials N and M and is based on a modular system, which can be extended or animated to a pattern.

My childhood was bursting with a multitude of colours – although pink was not my favorite one. Since memories shape our personality, a look into the past is good to understand what defines us as designers today. Right? Also, last year was a very good time to learn something new and have fun with it. I learned 3d modeling from my brother and that our loved ones are the most important thing in life.

A very personal message goes out into the world with the single »it will be fine« by the transgender actor Brix Schaumburg. The cover for this needed to be equally personal and unique. In Hamburg, Brix started his new life, so the port, its cranes and the reflections in the water are abstracted. In this way, a very simple graphic technique is used to allow the viewer to have any personal interpretation. Record covers often used optical illusions to gain this effect. The view into the harbor and the colors of sunrise over the water create a mood of the beginning of a new day or phase of life. The original record cover was created with linocut.

Little Museums are private institutions present all over Italy. The Little museums National Day is an event aimed to promote them.
The task of the communication project is to make the little museums familiar to the people and to create a symbol expressing the idea of reciprocal donation implicit in their activity.
The heart is therefore assumed as the core where memories and passions live and from where they spread about in the shape of flowers, recalling generosity.
For the second edition, the concept is further developed with flowers returning to the heart.

She’s a fluor goddess sunbathing in all her histrionic glory. I wanted to take this chance to print an illustration in fluorescent colors and create something fun, explosive and a bit chaotic. I love to play with geometrical shapes and working with a limited 2 color palette was a really fun experience.

The Hieronymus Bosch Pinball Game is part of my time studying Communications Design at State Academy of Fine Arts and Design in Stuttgart. I´m a huge fan of Hieronymus Bosch and always wanted to work with his incredible worlds and creatures. So here´s the pinball game! I interpreted lots of his figures and motives and also added some of my own, resulting in a new narrative. Everything that made me smile was allowed.
The dimensions of the poster are 67x135cm.
