STRIVING FOR CLARITY & SIMPLIFICATION IN ART AND LIFE.

#1 HAVING A CLEAR VISION. This time another surreal world called women´s magazines and instagram face fill(t)ers was the starting point of a drawing series that tried to exclude all corrently hyped beauty features buzzing around in the online world. By slowly extracting big lips (like in NICE TO SEE YOU) and extrememly trained bodyparts (as shown on the bottom in SAME SAME BUT DIFFERENT) I was able to present beauty in a more abstract way. Defined by shapes, lines and contrast, that can fit in a broader range of aesthetics.

Don´t let your body be fast fashion!

#2 ADDING MORE DEPTH. I always struggled with finding meaning and depth in my artworks made out of superficial elements from women´s magazines.  I asumed that using flat and noncritical starting materials makes my artworks flat and kind of meaningless. Detected an easy solution for that struggle: 

Simply generating depth through the usage of multiple collage layers in sketches and artworks.
