The screen printing series “Out of Brandenburg” began three years ago when I returned to Brandenburg after twenty years in Berlin, where I was born and raised. (My new home) Eberswalde reminded me of how much life in the Berlin outskirts differs from that in the capital. The sources of inspiration for the illustrative screen prints are both current observations and my own memories from childhood and youth. They reflect the diversity, even the contradictions between standstill and new beginnings that coexist in Brandenburg. And so, contrast is an important thematic motif in my images: between longing and fulfillment, calm and noise, security and worry.
