Icarus plans, 2021
Oil on canvas
70 x 50 cm ( 27,55 x 19,68 in)
‘Inspired by the story of the mythological figure Icarus, this is a work that reflects on the ability to overcome hardship, especially at this time of global disruption. The autumnal colours show the lushness of the forest, but at the same time warn of the transition to rougher times.’
Autumn in Hörden, 2021
Oil on canvas
50 x 70 cm (19,7 x 27,5 in)
‘Autumn is one of the most interesting seasons for a painter. The variety of colours shown in the landscape of the black forest is endless. Shades of gold, oranges, yellows, greens and reds; quite a visual poetry. Where I come from, in the Peruvian Pacific Ocean, I perceived only two marked seasons, summer and winter. In that sense the beauty of autumn is something relatively new to me. I see this as an analogy to life itself. Society seems to focus only on the ephemeral beauty of youth, yet it is during the autumn of life that a human being shows all his colours in radiant splendour.’
Flößer Party, 2020
Oil on canvas
50 x 70 cm ( 19,7 x 27,5 in)
‘The Floß (raft) was a traditional way to transport wood from the forest to the big cities, like Amsterdam. This painting is inspired in the celebration of The 800th Gernsbach anniversary. The Floß was used once again, this time to bring people into a floating party. I used Acrylic as a background, and then many oil layers were loosely added, to give the artwork his expressionist look.’
Missing, 2021
Oil on canvas
70 x 50 cm ( 27,55 x 19,68 in)
‘The case of Scarlett, a girl lost in the woods of Freiburg, was the inspiration for this piece. The search for her moved me, and made me think about what it really means to be lost. The forest in mist speaks of beings who may be very close, but are still unseen.’
