Since 2008 I am working on renegotiating the human-animal relationship with the means of painting. On the one hand, the social status of animals has played a role in the visual arts since early cave paintings, on the other hand, art can question norms, power relations and traditional conditions and reveal new perspectives. #painte #vegan #animalliberation #multispeciesfutures #contemporaryart

New work "Search" (200 x 160 cm, oil on canvas)
It will be on display at my upcoming solo show ZUsammenKUNFT DER SPEZIES at Mannheimer Kunstverein this autumn as well.
The two pigs are Willi and Hanna, who live on the wonderful farmed animal sanctuary Land der Tiere.
