BEAUTIFUL AND KIND - HARD AND UGLY

I have probably reached the last third of my life, with the realization that I have done some things right, some things wrong, some things too early, some things too late, some things too little, some things too much, some things unfortunately, some unfortunately not.

MY LIFE - A TOUGH TEST FOR MANY YEARS

Life has challenged me. It was a fair trade-off. Hard decisions and work on myself in exchange for a new understanding of myself, with a clear view of my past and future life, values and goals.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THAT, LIFE !

Now I have arrived, I am where I wanted to be, enjoying my life with authenticity, serenity and great gratitude. Gratitude for the transformation I have achieved, gratitude because I have learned that NOTHING in life should be taken for granted. There was no alternative to what happened, and it was a good thing.

Getting there involved effort, resistance, feelings and emotions. Feelings and emotions! Locked up, they cause damage. They found their way out, through my characters, even today. And in the future.

Today, I can look at the figures from a distance, even though they remind me of an important part of my life. Do my figures also reflect facets of your life?

It would be very exciting if I could realize your ideas of a character. Surely there are also topics in your life that concern you. Simply use the contact form.

PERSONAL INSIGHT

BIRTH TO THE POWER OF 2

On February 16, 2019, a wire figurine with the famous motif “Girl with a balloon” by the artist Banksy inspired me to try out a lot myself. 16.02.2019 was not only the birth of my figures, but in many ways also my own second birth.

 

HEART AND BELLY AS MIDWIFE

A certain mood is a prerequisite, the rest is automatic. It's not the head that forms the figures, it's the belly and the heart. For me as a rational, technically inclined person, this is a contrary but also beautiful experience. Extremely exciting, because the result is not predictable for me either.

 

IT IS A GIRL !

So far, I haven't had any impulse to shape boys. One reason is certainly that in 2019, in the early days of my characters, I primarily associated the courage and ability to allow and express feelings and emotions with the female gender, as well as the social legitimization for this.
