In my works I often, subconsciously refer to myths. Three of my art pieces, created separately, in different time, merged into a Triptych. It mirrors and catches a glance beyond vanishing point of visible horizon of 2020. Each of the compositions reflect processes of transformation through symbolism of myths, surfacing individual, social and futuristic plateaus.

“Beyond”
200x140x2cm; Oil & acrylic on canvas; Berlin,2020

Myth in Ancient Greece, about the phoenix is a long-lived bird that cyclically regenerates or is otherwise born again. 
Destruction and death, in its physical and metaphysical meaning in all times, as well as in our COVID-19 reality will and is regenerating and reconstructing our new self, our new reality. We must only learn to see “Beyond”… 

“Phantom pain”
100x70x0,3cm; Acrylic on wood panel; Berlin,2019

A perception that an individual experiences relating to a limb or an organ that is not physically part of the body. 
Through “Phantom pain” I am reflecting the absence and longing for the reality we used to know, experience and share…

“Lycanthropy”
200x140x2cm; Oil & acrylic on canvas; Berlin,2018

 It is the process of a human being to transform into an animal, most commonly a wolf. 
My symbolism of Lycanthropy derives in philosophical analysis of modernity, capitalism and can directly refer to the actuality of COVID-19 reality battles.
Who will we become during and after 2020? What will become of Humanity, will humanism still be real?
