# About me
Overall, I am interested in social and ideological conditions and how they relate to a history which is fundamental to those conditions. Exploring history, repression and oppressive ideological structures, I seek to reveal the changing conditions that our culture places upon humans, psychologically and possibly physically.Painting is a struggle between a traditional process and the new cyber-media age. The artist is a lair, a con-artist who presents an illusion, a vision of a reality, which may or may not be a comfortable. The images captured become psychological moments that hope to create a dialogue to question values of contemporary society. Exploring the possibilities of painting; what value does it has in our digital and cybernetic world of mass-production? I seek to produce art that is a culmination of the contemporary and the historical while revealing repressions that are both personal and cultural. The artist must struggle to remain a singularity within this media-dominated culture that strives to create a homogeneous hegemony of thought.
2006 a change took place. The paint has become both the Content and the Form. Violence or its implication now lives within the Form itself. The paint becomes violent force and flesh at once. Oppression and Repression among others are forces constantly inflicting violence upon the human experience. To paint forces is an attempt to reveal indiscernible zones which become violent acts upon the human form.

Great gallery! However, today, I was reading a... I dunno, morbid blurb about the death of Rachael Durie, so looking at your stuff, is a little extra OH MY GOD! for me today...
Fresh.

Some of your paintings remind me on Francis Bacon in a positiv way. Sorry, I had to mention that, because I am a big Bacon fan. But you have definitely your own language and good topics and ideas. Yeah, meat is not dead flesh. I agree and I'll keep one following your development. So let's see, what will come as next
Keep on working and best wishes from Germany

For me, you're one of the most compelling painters alive today, and your political subjects are never unappreciated.

Nice gallery but drop Bacon and Soutine and start to look for James.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thanks. But i have already found him. Art history is artists learning from other artists.
If one looks closely at Bacon and Soutine you can see that my work is related but still its own.
I do not deny there apparent influence on my work.

Picasso called it not learning but just stealing and had always been confessing openly he commits it permanent :-D
In fact- cubism was not idea of him but his friend Braque in 100 % and the feedback was work of Cezanne

The way you paint meat is delicious. Are you able to upload larger images, if only to increase their intensity?

Just saw your stuff at your website...a historical showing I suppose. I love your ideas as you approach your pieces and the story they tell.
What, if any. meaning is ascribed to the fact that your representations of people have no identity (decipherable physical facial features)?

Well... I have to say that you impress me a lot. Your art is a very beautiful fusion of Bacon and Soutine. As a Francis Bacon fan I had not found someone who assimilated correctly his art like you've done. Congratulations.
I want to invite you to see my gallery. I'm still young and seeing your art I realize that I have much to learn, but I think what I've done so far is not bad. I hope you see my profile and if you can comment on my work, I would really appreciate it. Thanks
