Lichtfest Krems Posters
Lichtfest is a light art festival that takes place every year in Krems, Austria. In 2023 I was given ten Citylight Spots to exhibit a series of posters for the festival.
The moths in the pictures represent the visitors attracted to the event, while the light symbolizes the festival itself. The overarching theme of the last festival was mobility, which is why a different form of transportation is hidden in each moth. Since I was given complete freedom by the organizers, I created the motifs in such a way that they function as a short animated loop. This animation was shown on a screen in the center of the old town.

Acrylic painting for Michi. One of his early childhood memories is of the lion enclosure at the zoo:
His fear of falling over the fence was taken away by his father, who said that he would just jump in after him to save him.

A common symptom of COVID is the loss of one’s sense of smell. As I had to observe myself, it is very difficult to assign odors. Everything smells somehow the same.
