matters of the heart
​
A vaudeville show of cordiality from wonderfully kitschy to elegant and noble to make you happy

​
​These "heart stories" came about more or less by accident. Originally it was intended to create a series with hearts in gouache. But as soon as I started to paint a heart picture, I lost interest in it. In 2012, while archiving older works on the computer, I came across an abstract heart imageheart rhythmfrom 1998. After looking  for a while, I found that there were at least eight heart shapes hidden in this image. I cut them out digitally and thought about what kind of picture stories I could create from them. And suddenly I had the term "Herzkasperl" in my head. Gradually, the terms that could be used in two senses bubbled up. I obsessively combed through all my works and created more than 50 heart stories. In contrast to the other art design works, the subtitles for these images are in German, since the interplay of word and motif should not lose the ironic background.
