Object: Urban Rhythms I - VII +++ Series: Pressed Flower Cabinets +++ Year: 2020 +++ Material: Wildflowers, laminating foil, historical butterfly boxes +++ Dimensions: 49 x 43 x 5.5 cm +++ Edition: 7 unique pieces +++ Nature affects the city, and the city penetrates nature. In the works, this fabric finds its extraction, preservation and essence in arrangements of urban rhythms such as club hustle and bustle, train platform waiting, pedestrian zone, playground, etc.. As if nature were being forced into our urban imaginations, transfigured scenes emerge Romanticism and poetry, as well as accusatory evidence.
Objekt: Faltbilder Schwarz +++ Serie: Asymmetrie des Unterbewussten +++ Jahr: 2004 +++ Material: Acryl auf Karton +++ Maße: 100 x 70 cm +++ Auflage: 4 Unikate +++ Was wir zeigen, soll schön sein, symmetrisch und perfekt, so, wie wir gesehen werden wollen – im Social Media, auf der Arbeit, in der Gesellschaft generell. Schönheit als Zugehörigkeit. Doch zwischen den Zeilen kommt unser Bruch durch, unterbewusst und nicht beabsichtigt. Unser Ich-Ideal ist nicht erreichbar und jeder Versuch eines Erreichens ist zum Scheitern verurteilt. Genau in dieser Imperfektion, dieser Asymmetrie liegt die Heilung – das Unperfekte macht uns einzigartig und besonders, unvergleichbar und begehrenswert. Vom Ich-Ideal zum Ich als Ideal.

Object: Ada*m & Eva*n +++ Series: Neon Lights +++ Year: 2010 +++ Material: Neon tubes +++ Dimensions: 20.5 + 20.5 + 13 cm D +++ Edition: 5 +++ Mixture of installation and interaction when installed in a window or on a mirror, inevitably involving the viewer. Fig leaves and apples are placeholders for viewers (= performers), representing Adam and Eve, here gender-flexible. The symbolism, technology and trappings of advertising and prostitution create a dialogue with the narrative, nimbus and symbolism of the lost paradise. Playful complicity and trivialization through aestheticization belie the tragedy of capitalist self-exploitation.

Object: Folding pictures blue white +++ Series: Asymmetry of the subconscious +++ Year: 2004 +++ Material: acrylic on cardboard +++ Dimensions: 100 x 70 cm +++ Edition: 8 unique pieces +++ What we show should be beautiful, symmetrical and perfect, the way we want to be seen - on social media, at work, in society in general. Beauty as belonging. But between the lines our break comes through, subconsciously and not intentionally. Our ego ideal is unattainable and every attempt to achieve it is doomed to failure. It is precisely in this imperfection, this asymmetry that the healing lies - the imperfection makes us unique and special, incomparable and desirable. From the ego ideal to the ego as ideal.
Objekt: Rauminstallation +++ Serie: Flipbook +++ Motive: Seifenblasen +++ Jahr: 2010 +++ Material: Zweiseitige Fine Art Prints auf Aludibond hinter Plexi +++ Maße: 12 Teile á 20 x 15 x 3 cm +++ Auflage: 3 +++ Seifenblasen sind hier nicht das Symbol von Vergänglichkeit und Träumen, die zerplatzen, sondern vielmehr Vehikel von Visionen, die am Ende ihres Schwebens Energie entlassen und im Raum aufgehen. Die Installation ist hier das entscheidende Momentum, wenn die Seifenblase ewig schwebt, indem man um die Installation herumgeht: die Motivplatten sind beidseitig, sodass man Teil einer Dauerschleife wird. Das Ankommen wird trotz Bewegung verunmöglicht.
Object: Film prints | À Rebours and The Green Carnation +++ Series: Olfactive Film Stills +++ Year: 2019 +++ Material: Fine Art Print Aludibond Plexi +++ Dimensions: 45 x 30 cm, 60 x 40 cm, 105 x 70 cm + ++ Edition: 5 + 2 +++ Fragrance is the starting point. An attempt is made to approach two scents via sound on the one hand and visual on the other. How does scent sound? What does scent look like? The work is based on research into general associations to the individual components, which are then composed to create a composition that can be perceived in the mind. Significant still images were taken from the film, which could also provide an approximation of the smell. Also take a look at the pictures from the opening.
Object: Wall cabinets with flares +++ Series: Display of the subconscious +++ Year: 2004 +++ Material: ink on architect's paper, glass box +++ Dimensions: 51 x 42 x 7 cm +++ Edition: Series of unique pieces ++ + We would like to share. If I am not seen, I do not exist. We think we have control over the information disclosed. We're making ourselves perfect, aren't we? But what we display is much more, if not something completely different... something between the lines: our most intimate and subconscious insecurity towards life and ourselves. It's about belonging and achieving the ego ideal, at least as reflected by others.

Object: Wall sequence +++ Series: Flipbook +++ Motive: Soap bubbles +++ Year: 2010 +++ Material: Fine art print on Aludibond +++ Dimensions: 12 parts each 70 x 45 cm +++ Edition: 3 +++ There are no soap bubbles here the symbol of transience and dreams that burst, but rather a vehicle of visions that release energy at the end of their floating and dissolve in space. The view not of the stage, but of the audience makes it clear where the possible vehicles are directed. The emptiness of the room makes it clear to whom they arrive.
Object: Body object earring +++ Series: Grail +++ Year: 2022 +++ Material: silver / gold-plated silver +++ Dimensions: 5 x 0.3 cm +++ Edition: 100 / variety +++ What does your nature do to you? It asks you to live - to preserve life and to squander life. During the day the life-giving vase for flowers, at night in the club the bottle for excess. Symbol and mediator of opposites that belong together. | Photographic work: triptych. Albinism-white blonde as an expression of absolute purity. Wild strawberry, symbol of blood and life-giving fertility. Absorbed in black, dimensionless space means infinity, universality and the absence of location.

Object: Folding pictures red on nature +++ Series: Asymmetry of the subconscious +++ Year: 2004 +++ Material: Acrylic on cardboard +++ Dimensions: 100 x 70 cm +++ Edition: 2 unique pieces +++ What we show , should be beautiful, symmetrical and perfect, the way we want to be seen - on social media, at work, in society in general. Beauty as belonging. But between the lines our break comes through, subconsciously and not intentionally. Our ego ideal is unattainable and every attempt to achieve it is doomed to failure. It is precisely in this imperfection, this asymmetry that the healing lies - the imperfection makes us unique and special, incomparable and desirable. From the ego ideal to the ego as ideal.
Object: Object Miniatures +++ Series: Glück +++ Year: 2022 +++ Material: Wine gum on index cards +++ Dimensions: 10.5 x 7.5 x 1 cm +++ Edition: Unique series +++ Hanna Arendt invented the term “the banality of evil” and drew attention not only to evil, but also to banality. The thesis arises that it must also be happiness that arises from the most banal. The banality of happiness. Light reflections, colorful things, sweet things, simple things - it's incredibly banal and uses the same means to counteract the horror of the world with something good. Objects of memory, hope and silly happiness. The wine gums are folded into secret symbols and carry an individual message from the viewer. The location on a checkered index card is at the same time the location of happiness in our bureaucratized world as an absolute possibility.

Hope and proof of the forgiveness and overarching connection of all things. | Lucas Carrieri Art Gallery, Potsdamer Str. 61, Berlin (formerly Torstraße, Berlin)
Object: Neon hand-painted white boxes +++ Series: Tester boxes +++ Year: 2018 ongoing +++ Material: Neon marker on white cardboard +++ Dimensions: 12 x 7 x 3 cm +++ Edition: Series of unique items +++ To prevent black sales, perfume test bottles are sold to retailers in blank outer packaging. This fact makes these boxes the base of the only objects hand-painted by the artist. A test, a non-binding nature and at the same time a strong responsibility towards commercialization or its opposite. Combining appreciation and devaluation. The color scheme (neon green), style and content of the drawings refer to the narrative of the brand from which these boxes are taken: nature, urbanity and art.
Object: Wall object triptych “Love Your Nature” I - III +++ Series: Blow Up Editorials +++ Year: 2011 to today +++ Material: Fine Art Print on Aludibond +++ Dimensions: 180 x 125 x 8 cm + ++ Edition: 3 +2 / single piece +++ Fashion and advertising photography became art through Cecil Beaton and FC Gundlach. Three steps further, editorials serve as a stylistic template for this work/series when the medium is elevated not only in terms of content and appearance, but also physically: the staple punching, the credit, the center fold, the corrugations after the center fold; Dominant fetishes of our society emerge in the form of wall objects. | Photographic work: portraits, often commissioned work. In terms of content, one to six people from a family, company or club background are depicted, who are placed in direct context with related insignia. The editorial summarizes the thematic framework of an otherwise eclectic collection. The result is a highly personal snapshot that, elaborately composed, deliberately draws a link to courtly painting of the 16th century, the advertising images of that time.
