I love the endless possibilities that mixed media and collage art allows. Unlike photography, there are no inherent rules or methods to follow, so when I come across work like Blaue3‘s, it makes me think about how I can further my own practice in a different way.
Artist’s Statement:
I was born in 1966 in the beautiful Lutherstadt Wittenberg (Germany), where I also live and work. For many years I worked as an independent media designer for digital and print media. Since 2013, I have also dealt with photography, traditional printing techniques such as cyanotype and other artistic expressions.
In 2015, I discovered the art form of collage for me and began to study it intensively. The grotesque and at the same time harmonious combination of different materials such as newspaper clippings, colored or old paper, photographs, graphics or the like, which do not belong together, is for me a special, unique creative process. After a heavy operation in early 2017, I decided to devote myself entirely to this art.
