Mahlzeit!, since 2021

graphite on Paper and graphite, acrylic on Cotton / 70 x 100 cm or 100 cm x 70 cm It's an drawing series of still lifes on paper. The picture shows a lying cut up beetroot on a plate or table. And a tennis ball supporting one half of the beetroot. In addition, I have poured or spilled some beetroot juice on the second half of the beetroot for a "little" colour accent. Inspired by the style of 17th century Dutch dining still lifes, especially 'Het Monochrome Banketje' with its main representatives Pieter Claesz and Willem Claesz. Heda. This are not paintings as with Claesz, but this time drawings with graphite and eraser. Another special feature is that some of the objects/fruits are shown disproportionately enlarged.

Burger-Porn, 2015

Video, 09:15 min You see me eating a hamburger. On the side, I'm watching a porn video on my smartphone. So simple! No more and no less! A matter of course! No emotions! The food is not more important than the film! It's my homage to Pop Art and Andy Warhol, but with a current time reference!
