This artwork serves as a reminder that some experiences, despite the desire to paint over them, forever remain an integral part of our essence.

“I am afraid to see what is coming” This version of “The Head” is permeated by a noticeable heaviness. The individual gaze of the eye, which is present throughout the “Head” series, is particularly intense here, almost as if it could glimpse into the future and be overwhelmed by what it sees. The dark tones and shades of the painting convey an atmosphere of uncertainty and discomfort. The head appears both curious and hesitant, as if it wants to know the truth but also recoils from it.

For me, the act of dancing embodies more than just physical movement. “Dance” symbolizes the bold, the eccentric, the unconventional. It’s an invitation to go beyond one’s limits, to shed those invisible bonds that hold us back. In a world where many are trapped in their routines and fears, “to dance” is a powerful act of rebellion and self-discovery. It is the inner call to seize the moment and follow the heart, even when the path is uncertain.

“Annemarie” marks a pivotal moment in my life journey. Earlier, driven by an impulsive desire for independence, I avoided the responsibility of having a family. This yearning for freedom led to the end of my relationship with Flavia. However, Annemarie, a mother of two children, had a frank conversation with me and taught me how beautiful it is to have children in one’s life. Shortly thereafter, she left me and paved the way for Petra and her two children, through which I discovered the warmth of family life. So, the painting not only reflects Annemarie’s essence but also the profound transformation she brought into my life.
