During corona crisis a lot of artists can not work, must stay at home and have no salary. They have no perspectives. Somehow a lot of artists remember me on dying swans. After corona crisis hopefully artists are able to follow their professions and can do what they live for.

1) Green, Orange and Purple are the secondary colours which are mixed with two of the primary colours. The designed type face with one of the primary colours shows the secondary colours when it mixes with the background colours.
2) Colours would be meaningless when it stands alone; they are important to our feelings when they coming with black and white.

Skat, Mau Mau or Doppelkopf — with this deck of cards you always have an ace up your sleeve. Through 32 finely printed cardboards (59×91mm), dull family evenings can be spiced up and new friends made. Sitting comfortably together, following rules and wisecracking. Lovely!

The design is inspired by a deck of cards designed in 1906 by Wiener Werkstätte-related artist Editha Moser.

Poster to commemorate International Women’s Day. The different colors used in the posters symbolize the different identities of all of us. Under the motto of “Do it for you”, I wanted to convey a message to help people engage in any kind of movements for gender equality. Because it’s not for someone else, it’s for ourselves.

Norouz-e Naft combines Norouz, the celebration of the New Year in Iranian calender, with Rouz-e Naft – the Day of Oil, that refers to an important historic event: When Iran’s Prime Minister Mossadegh nationalised oil on the day before Norouz in 1951 and, in doing so, revoked access from the british company „Anglo Persian Oil-Company“.

As the first point of contact not only with peers but also with bright colours, the playground shapes our perception of colourfulness from an early age. This inspires us (consciously or subconsciously) forever.

The squeaky red climbing frames, the sand (which I liked to have crunching between my teeth), the giddy feeling of the slides and swings, the deep blue of the sky.

Spielplatz, I MISS YOU.

This work was commissioned for the British musician Paul Weller and was released as a limited edition screen print. As a long time fan of Paul Weller’s music it was exciting to be able to visually respond to his song ‘More’ . The lyrics talk about ‘pushing up into the sky’ and I wanted to capture the feeling of expansion and floating away on an aspiration. Instead of having a figure in the illustration I used the letters of the word More make a face that is drifting away, framed by a pink sky and sunset, wanting more. The cautionary lyrics remind us that in floating away on our desires, eventually we need to come back down to reality again.

Anschlag Berlin is a collection of contemporary posters curated by Sven Lindhorst-Emme and Fons Hickmann. The exhibition was conceived as a traveling exhibition and was presented in the following cities: Lucerne, Berlin, Beijing, Macau, and Shanghai. Each exhibition poster has a different look, printed by Iris-silksreen technic.

What inspired me with the series was no matter what we face in life, we have the opportunity to shape it and bloom from our past. Hoping that what we have dreamed soon will be revealed to our naked eye.

The Tower depicts a year of chaos, learning, and personal growth. A year of boxes and finding ways to turn them from cages into temples.
