the artwork : “En mémoire”    (in memory of) 

theme: in memory of the many victims during the Paris bombings ( November 2015 – theater “Bataclan”)

This piece is part of the series “Dreamscapes”. In my 2D images , which are photographic creations, I use elements from different photographs . I select the elements from reports of street theater, dance and drama and turn them into a new scene, a new setting. They are actually photographic collages. When that collage is finished, it is projected on a wall with damage, on cracks in walls or on old paintings on canvas with peeling varnish. Sometimes concrete is also used to project the photographic collage onto. Even printed photographs, pre-coated with a gel layer, I sometimes put them in water and photograph them through the water. The result is often surreal with a touch of humor. By using structures, the visitor gets the impression that he is looking at a painting. For this I was inspired by the well-known “trompe-l’oeil.” A trompe-l’œil is an image in the visual arts in which an optical illusion has been deliberately created. Trompe-l’œils are best known in painting as a painting technique in which the illusion of three-dimensional objects or space is created by an extremely realistic and detailed manner of painting. The word trompe-l’œil means illusion of sight. 

Literally translated, trompe-l’oeil means “trickery”.
