The Newromanzer & TXT on Devices
Two different work groups hanging straight in line, face to face in the exhibition space.
Right wall: Reverse glass paintings, old found windows, motif: Wild roses.
I paint reverse glass paintings from time to time and since about ten years. I mainly depict dried wild roses from the back yard of my studio. The title: The Newromanzer is the work group’s title and the title of each painted glass rose.
Left wall: Hand-engraved, high-end WLAN routers installed on upside hanging mirrors.
I inscribe the surface of devices with self-created txts since two years. Some printed some hand-engraved – in different ways installed. These DLink Ultra routers are brand new works and presented on mirrors for the very first time. The title: TXT on Devices.
I work on these different work groups at the same time which is why I present them together.

Frozen Gestures.
People are living in underground, in little individual “cells,” without having any direct contact with each other. Whether we are speaking to an individual or a group of 1000 people, we first needed stories about earliest myths and fables and questions about who we are and how to lead a good life. We are a proven supplier to service providers across the globe, able to integrate the solutions in a minimum of time in order to avoid the six – gesture habitats. But when the machine stops, nothing will happen. Regarding the correspondence through the past from the present: three-axis hypotheses without any dust or age. We demand supplements and invite explanation in addition.
Being a prototype – being smart.
