2006, canvas, various red pigments with oil , 200 x 140 cm

Red is a primary color full of power, feelings and the story of life. The theme of emergence, birth, love, passion just as suffering and death are associated with this color. How does a red in red picture and what accompanies me when I look at it? I have faced this challenge and it became an oil painting on which I painted for a very long time. Layer upon layer and again and again this physically exhausting movement to represent the color in the flow. Today, after 14 years, the picture still has this radiance, a power that touches me and accompanies me with pleasure. My thread, or even the power to start over and over again with the knowledge it does me good.
