I started creating mosaics about five years ago. It is a meditative art. Similar to poetry the goal is to achieve maximal expression using minimal elements. And in addition, many poems and mosaics share the matrix-design as an underlying structure, a structure also widely used in mathematics. Mosaic art also reflects aspects of impressionistic painting.
Wood is a fascinating material, creating woodcuts always a unique adventure.
The result is the sum of the interaction of the will of the wood, the tools, the paper, the ink, the printing method used and the artistic intention, all demanding their credit in the successfully accomplished work. Occasionally I paint , maybe in the future some more. Most of my artwork relates to topics which have emerged over the time. Topics permit to focus and to deepen the expression. Also they allow to integrate ideas from different sources.
