I am a visual artist (*1989) from Salzburg. My main focus is on drawing and painting. Following on my master’s degree in Communication Sciences (2008 – 2014), since 2013 I have been dedicating myself to my passion, the art. Since then, I have attended various courses (2014 – 2017) at the International Summer Academy of Fine Arts in Salzburg and studied comic and caricature drawing (2019) in Hamburg. In the meantime, I have had the pleasure of showing my work in numerous exhibitions in Austria, Germany, Holland and Finland.
The topics of “connectedness” and “multi-layeredness” as well as the resulting complexity form the core of my work as an artist. They run like a leitmotif through the works of my last few years. This aspect manifests itself in particular in my one-line drawing style and the way it connects with the background of my works. By creating the motifs in a continuous line, I want to emphasise their connection to their environment, other living beings and themselves.
