Profile

Eclectic composer and multimedia artist, his musical work eludes any catalogue of drawers. His musical language ranges from esoteric-ambient influences to pure experimental transavant-garde, and this spectrum can be imagined in one and the same composition. This orientation thus implies a considerable distance from the historical avant-garde Darmstadt provenance. Furthermore are present multimedia projects, these consist of both a musical and visual composition (large format Giclée print and partly video art), where the musical composition as well as the visual composition could exist, under certain circumstances, as an autonomous work in itself. Moreover, in such a view, the visual composition would also be comprehensible as the attempt of a "possible visual interpretation" of musical composition, just as in some cases the reverse constellation can not be ruled out. In his pictorial language one finds informal, neo-surrealist and occasionally neo-expressionist influences, and this spectrum is also present in one and the same work.


…..for our goal was not only the East, or rather the East was not only a country and something geographical, but it was the home and youth of the soul, it was everywhere and nowhere, it was the union of all times.

Journey to the east by Hermann Hesse
